Hello sir,
4 months before I addressed some issues about a person who used to demoralise and criticize others. I addressed such issues through an email. And in the process I mentioned some obsene word about that person .due to some reasons she is no longer my friend. once she threatened me that she will complain against me as I have used obsene word. But till date the matter has not been reported. I just want to enquire can any charges be made against me as I have not directly caused obsene words to her.

A.Dear sir, Let me explain that sections 65, 66 and 67 of Information Technology Act,2000 to deal with the computer which was used as a tool to commit various Cyber crimes. Number of cases has been brought to light of "Cyber squatting". Computer crime can be defined as crime against an organization or an individual in which the perpetrator of the crime uses a computer or any computer enabled technology for all or part of the crime. Hacking is the basic act of the criminals who later on treat on to the other computer related crimes and frauds thus making it easier for law enforcement authorities to grill them down under other existing laws too. Section 66 E describes the punishment for violating the privacy of a person by intentionally or knowingly capturing, publishing or transmitting the image of a private area of any person without his or her consent. For doing such an act a person can be punished with imprisonment up to three years or a fine up to two lakhs or may be both. So it is better to contact lawyer to get compromise with the girl by mediation.

A.For whom did you use the obscene words and how this girl is related? If the girl does not have any connection to that man and she is not at all affected by those words then you don't have to worry. Not every person has a right to take legal action against anyone unless there is a proven and established relation. In law we call it " Locus Standi" .

A.In order to give a proper answer to your question, it is necessary to look at the mail which you have circulated. However, as a general observation, I can only say that use of words which are defamatory in nature is wrong and may bring criminal charges and also tortious claim. you would have to defend yourself if action is brought.
