Mismatch: Anik used to download pictures from matrimonial websites, edit them in Adobe Photoshop and then paste them on the fake documents. |
Anik Sayyed (27), a computer professional, in his confessional statement recorded by a magistrate in October 2008, has said that he downloaded photos from websites like Shaadi.com and Bharti.com and used them on forged documents.
"I used to type matrimony in Google and open sites like Shaadi.com and Bharti.com and used to download photos of men registered on those sites. I used to then edit those photographs in Coreldraw and Adobe Photoshop and paste them on other documents," Anik said.
Anik, who was arrested by the Mumbai Crime Branch from Pune last year, has further said that he also used information from the BSNL telephone directory to forge details for procuring SIM cards.
The confessional statements of seven out of the 21 arrested IM members were opened by a special MCOCA court here yesterday and the copies were given to the other accused.
