Renowned singer Neha Kakkar made headlines recently after photos of her getting arrested in connection to a trading scam case went viral online. However, turns out that the photos have been falsely generated using artificial intelligence (AI) and that the singer has no involvement in the case.

Several photos have been doing the rounds on the internet in which Neha can be seen crying as police personnel arrested her. The photos were shared with the caption, “Tragic end to Neha Kakkar’s career! This morning’s news was a shock to all Indian people! (sic).”

The photos also came with links, however, when clicked on them, the links redirected the reader to a malicious website carrying a fake interview in the name of Neha promoting ‘Emarlado’.
