Few days back, Chennai based professor was arrested for posting vulgar tweets about singer Chinmayi on her twitter page.

And now a government employee, who works as an assistant in Tiruppur Collectorate, has also been arrested on the same.

Chinmayi has earlier lodged a complaint with the police alleging that few individuals have threatened to kill, rape and assault her on Twitter, since January. She also mentioned that they are posting comments on her character as well as about her mother.

She listed six twitter handlers – @senthilchn, @RajanLeaks, @asharavkay, @losongelesram, @vivajial and @thyirvadai. So far the police have arrested two persons under the Information Technology Act 2005 and Prevention of Women Harassment Act.

Speaking to Media, Ms Chinmayi's mother said, "This issue shows the plight of single mothers; I treated them as my own sons and tried my best to reach out, but all my efforts went waste. Women should be respected. I told Chinmayi to forgive them every time, but she was pushed".

Police say they have identified the group responsible for the tweets under question. According to them, Saravana Kumar Perumal, the National Institute of Fashion Technology or NIFT professor's mobile phone and broadband connection records match with the said tweets. They arrested him yesterday under the Information Technology Act 2005 and Prevention of Women Harassment Act.
