A female student seeking help

Query

I am a college student. In social media I have been facing a few problems since the very begin- ning. In the public groups and pages, I often face harassment by unknown users and strangers in the comment section. I wanted to know if there is any legal solution to my problem.

The situation you are facing is commonly known as cyber bullying. It is basically an act done by a person(s) against another person(s) by using electronic communication, e.g. social media. A few examples of cyber bullying are- causing someone harm by posting unwanted or private information, threatening a person by sending mean messages via emails, social networking websites, text or audio messages, spreading rumours via email or social networking sites, sharing private/embarrassing pictures, creating fake profiles, etc.

In Bangladesh, cyber bullying is not just an act to be scorned at but is an offence punishable under the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Act 2006. The Act, inter alia, provides that a person who deliberately publishes, in a website or in electronic form, any material which is fake and obscene or has the effect of corrupting persons who are likely to read, see or hear the material or causes to prejudice the image of a person or may hurt religious belief or instigate against any person, then the person publishing the material will be guilty of an offence under the Act. The punishment for such an offence is imprisonment and/or fine.

Victims of cyber crimes (including cyber bullying) can lodge a complaint to the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) by calling at +880-29611111 or by emailing at btrc@btrc.gov.bd. BTRC is supposed to take necessary actions within 24 hours and the perpetrators will be brought to justice within 3 days after the complaint is filed. The government has also launched a cyber-crime helpline. Victims can call at +8801766678888 to submit their complaints.

Furthermore, if the harassment amounts to criminal intimidation (threatening someone with injury to his/her person, reputation, property etc.), then the perpetrator may be liable to punishment as per the Penal Code 1860.

The steps mentioned above should definitely be taken if the matter is serious. An important first step is the internal reporting process of the particular social media website or application. If we take Facebook, for example, photos and comments can be reported and the particular user can be blocked. Similar reporting systems are in place in most other popular social media websites or applications.

Answer the following questions.  

(1) How long will it usually take to bring the perpetrators to Justice? Do you think the time frame is acceptable? 

Answer. Usually it will take not more than three days to bring the perpetrators to justice. Yes, I think the time-frame is acceptable.   

(2)  When may the perpetrator be liable to punishment as per the Penal Code 1860?

Answer. The perpetrator may be liable to punishment as per the Penal Code 1860 if the harassment amounts to criminal intimidation, for example, threatening someone with injury to his/her person, reputation, property etc.  

 (3) What could be the first important step in case of cyber bullying?  

Answer. The first important step in case of cyber bullying could be the internal reporting process of the particular social media website or application. For example, regarding Facebook, photos and comments can be reported and the particular user can be blocked.  

(4) What is the punishment for publishing any material that may hurt religious belief?

Answer. The punishment for publishing any material that may hurt religious belief is imprisonment and/or fine.  

 (5) What do you know about cyber bullying? Write in your own words.  

Answer. Cyber bullying is basically an act done by a person(s) against another person(s) by using electronic communication, e.g., social media. One example of cyber bullying is sharing private/embarrassing pictures.  

(6) What can we do if we become the victims of cyber bullying?  

Answer. If we become the victims of cyber bullying, we can lodge a complaint to the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) by calling at +880-29611111 or by emailing at btrc@btrc.gov.bd. We can also submit our complaints to the cyber-crime helpline number, +8801766678888.  

(7) What is the problem of the college student? How does she wish to face it?  

Answer. The problem of the college student is that while using social media, she often faces harassment by unknown users and strangers in the comment section of the public groups and pages. She wishes to face it legally.  

(8) Point out three examples of cyber bullying. 

Answer. Three examples of cyber bullying are (1) causing someone harm by posting unwanted or private information, (1) spreading rumours via email or social networking sites, and (ii) creating fake profiles, etc.   

(9) Is cyber bullying an offence in Bangladesh? If yes, under which law is it punishable? 

Answer. Yes, cyber bullying is an offence in Bangladesh. It is punishable under the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Act 2006.  

(10) What is the fob of BTRC after the any complaint is filed?

Answer. After any complaint is filed, the job of BTRC is to take necessary actions within 24 hours.
