He told the court that he copied a photo of the victim from his own Facebook account without his consent. He morphed the photo in a way that the victim appeared to be standing in an indecent way with women.
The accused then made a video and added a recording of the victim to it so that he appeared to be a flesh trader and a pimp. He then asked his friends to post the video on Facebook to disgrace the victim.
When the victim came to know about it, he lodged a complaint before the RAK Police which investigated the issue and arrested the suspect who admitted to his crime.
He was then referred to the prosecution and then to the court, which ordered adjournment of the case to April 16.
