The accused, named Akubathini Ram Nagesh, lived in a rented accommodation in O.D.F. Quarters of the town. He is a software engineer who works in a private firm. The cyber crime wing from Mumbai reached the area on Tuesday night but arrested him on Wednesday around 6 a.m. The officers of the Indrakaran police station assisted Mumbai's cybercrime wing to arrest.

According to the police, the man used a Twitter handle named, @criccrazygirl, to give rape threats. Many trolled Mohammed Shami disturbingly online with communal slurs following India vs Pakistan T-20 match. The Indian skipper decided to support Shami in such hard times. And this intrigued the accused to post such inhuman threats.

Lastly, Mumbai police booked a case against him under Sections 374 (A), 506, 500 of the Indian Penal Code and 67, and 67 (B) of the IT Act.
