Vivek Soni said the videos never went viral. “Other girls in the hostel saw the accused shooting her own video which she sent to her boyfriend in Shimla. They panicked and thought she shot the videos of all others,” he said adding that if a girl and a boy share videos with each other, it is no offence.
