A photo of a religious site was uploaded on a social networking website, another picture of a place of worship was posted on the Facebook, leading to protests near Charminar.

HYDERABAD: Close on the heels of the Sangareddy incident, in which a photo of a religious site was uploaded on a social networking website, another picture of a place of worship was posted on the Facebook, leading to protests near Charminar here today.

However, the Cyber Crime Cell of Hyderabad police, as well as the Charminar police managed to block and delete the "indecent" content (uploaded on the website) in time after the police contacted the Facebook authorities yesterday, Detective Department Deputy Commissioner of Police J Satyanarayana said.

A complaint was earlier lodged at Hussaini police station here, alleging that some miscreant had hurt their religious feelings by morphing the photo of the religious structure belonging to their community.

The DCP further said they had earlier received petitions stating that some anti-social elements were trying to create a rift between two communities for selfish gains by posting some "indecent and morphed" photographs of various places of worship of different communities on social networking website- Facebook.

So far, police have deleted the online contents in nine such cases in Hyderabad city, he said.

Police have appealed to the people of all communities to contact them for the removal of objectionable content and not to believe in rumours.

A curfew was imposed in Sangareddy town in Medak district on March 30, following a communal clash that started after a picture of a religious place was uploaded on a social networking site.
