On Monday cyber police arrested a 26-year-old paramilitary man who is a die hard fan of actress Kareena Kapoor for allegedly hacking her income tax account in September last year.

After he confessed to all this, the police team then took his custody and got him to the city on Monday afternoon. The accused has been booked on charges of impersonation and relevant sections of the Information Technology Act.
