If someone is blackmailing your sister with private photos, immediately report the matter to the police, especially under sections related to cybercrime and extortion (e.g., Section 66E of the IT Act). You can also file a complaint with the cybercrime cell. Consider seeking a legal order to prevent the photos from being shared. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
