Air-hostess moves court over obscene profile

New Delhi: An air-hostess of Kingfisher Airlines has approached a city court and sought action against officials of social networking website www.orkut.com for their failure to withdraw her vulgar and defamatory profile allegedly posted by a prankster.
Her profile on the site carries her photo in an official uniform and is full of vulgar material. Among other prurient details, the profile claims that her favourite book is Kamasutra.
But what has left the Delhi-based air hostess sleepless and depressed is the fact that the prankster has given her neighbour's telephone numbers in her profile with an invitation to other Orkut users to contact her for friendship.
And apart from embarrassment for the victim, her neighbours are also having a harrowing time as they have been flooded with pesky calls, said the 23-year-old complainant in her plea before a city court.
Additional chief metropolitan magistrate (ACMM) Kamini Lau on Monday took a serious view of the mental torture the victim has been subjected to and directed the Delhi Police to register an FIR and file a report by February 9.
