Furthermore, Section 58 of the Cybercrimes Act defines cyberstalking as a course of conduct that causes a reasonable person to feel fear.
Cyberstalking is a serious offense that can have severe consequences on the mental and emotional well-being of the victims. It is often accompanied by real-time or offline stalking and can be motivated by a desire to control, intimidate, or influence the victim.
