Legal Action Proceeded In Rukmini Vasanth Ai Case

The arrests came after the actor filed a complaint with the Bangalore Cyber Crime Police Station over manipulated content that falsely showed her in a bikini photo shoot. Investigators said the accused used artificial intelligence and deep fake technology to superimpose her face onto another person’s body without consent, causing severe embarrassment and reputational harm. The case has been registered under Sections 66C and 66D of the Information Technology Act, along with multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including 75(3), 79, 336, 356, 351, 352, and 294. 3c07

Rukmini Vasanth, known for Sapta Sagaradaache Ello and her role in Kantara: Chapter 2, publicly clarified that the viral bikini images and videos were “entirely fake and fabricated” and called their creation a “serious violation of privacy”. She urged people not to share the content and confirmed that legal action was being initiated. The Karnataka Cyber Command stated that creating and sharing non-consensual AI-generated explicit content is a serious criminal offence and warned of strict legal action against offenders. The investigation is ongoing to determine if more people were involved or if other women and celebrities were targeted.
