The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita has been invoked to address the misuse of social media platforms for child exploitation. A recent case involves an individual named Nabeel Hayat Ansari who allegedly secretly recorded children and uploaded compromising content on social media platforms.

An investigation was launched after a cybercrime complaint was filed via the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal in April 2026.
Digital identifiers linked to the suspect were traced, leading to his arrest.

Misuse of Social Media Platforms

According to preliminary findings, between January 17 and April 6, 2026, Ansari allegedly published multiple videos featuring children on Instagram, with the intention of building a following and generating revenue.

The videos were recorded without the knowledge or consent of the minor subjects, constituting a serious offense under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Information Technology Act.

Cases Registered Under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and IT Act

The registration of the case under Sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Section 67B of the Information Technology Act underscores the gravity of the situation and the ongoing efforts of law enforcement agencies to combat the exploitation of children through social media platforms.

While details regarding seized devices and potential future arrests remain unclear, the continued investigation into this matter highlights the need for vigilance and cooperation among authorities, social media companies, and users alike in preventing and addressing instances of child exploitation online.
