A Bengaluru man came to know about his wife's affair through car GPS tracking system connected to his smartphone. Upon confrontation the duo threatened the man with dire consequences

A private company employee in Bengaluru claimed that he came to know about his wife’s affair through his car GPS tracker connected to his smartphone. According to a report by the Times of India, the man got married in 2014 and has a six-year-old daughter. He used to work in night shifts  and everything was smooth until one day he stumbled upon the GPS data of his car. 

The man had bought the car in 2020 which came with a GPS tracking system, a feature he did not tell anyone including his wife, stated the report quoting the man as saying. 

“One day last year, I discovered my car was taken out by someone while I was working the night shift in the office. A detailed study of the GPS showed the car had moved in the KIA direction by midnight and stopped outside a hotel,” he said. 

The car was driven back home at around 5 am, he added. 

The man visited the hotel and found that his wife and her boyfriend had booked a room using their voter ids. The man then approached a local court to seek its direction for Mahalakshmipuram Police to register a case against his wife and the male friend. 

However, when he confronted the duo, he was allegedly threatened with dire consequences. 

According to the report, based on the court’s direction a case was registered under Indian Penal Code sections 417 (cheating), 420 (cheating and dishonesty including delivery of property), 506 (criminal intimidation), and 120B (criminal conspiracy). 

A notice has also been issued to the woman who is currently living in a remote district of Karnataka, said the police.
