It has been further alleged that the petitioner has clicked photos and videos and made it viral. Submission has been advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the relationship between the petitioner and the victim was going-on for two and half years, which would be indicative of the fact that there was a love-affair between petitioner and the victim.
