Pathanamthitta: BJP worker Aneesh, a resident of Aranmula, was arrested for putting up a defamatory post against Rajya Sabha MP AA Rahim on Facebook.

Aneesh had uploaded a 25-seconds-long morphed video of Rahim on the popular social media platform. In the video, the Rajya Sabha MP was shown relaxing on a throne at the house of the infamous antique dealer Monson Mavunkal. 

The fake video was shared and seen by several people. Rahim had approached the police seeking strict action, after the misleading video came into his notice.

33-year-old Aneesh was arrested at his residence in Aranmula on Saturday early morning.
