Mr. Sundarapandian said that the AAP approached the police after certain people approached the party seeking their help to check the authenticity of the page.
Mr. Thirunavukkarasu said all aspects regarding the particular Facebook page including who opened the account and whether the profile photograph of the girl was posted with or without consent of the person would be inquired.
