Damoh, Oct 13 (PTI) A young man was allegedly forced to wash the feet of a Brahmin community member and drink that water for sharing an 'objectionable' AI-generated image, prompting police to register a case against four persons, officials said.
The incident took place on Saturday at Satariya village under the jurisdiction of Patera police station, 45 km from the district headquarters, they said on Sunday.
A video of the incident has surfaced on social media.
Purshottam Kushwaha, who belongs to an OBC community, allegedly posted on Instagram an Artificial Intelligence-generated image showing another villager, Annu Pandey, wearing a garland of shoes, the officials said.
After the post went viral and sparked anger and tension in the area, Kushwaha deleted the post and publicly apologised
