Bhubaneswar: The Sub Divisional Judicial Magistrate (SDJM) court here today rejected the bail plea of alleged blackmailer Archana Nag.
Sources said that the bail plea hearing of Nag was held via video conferencing mode from Jharpada jail over security concerns.
Nag was arrested last Thursday on charges of extorting money from several influential persons after honey-trapping them. She had moved the SDJM Court for bail on Monday.
The Commissionerate Police had arrested Nag following a complaint by a woman at the Khandagiri police station here.
The complainant had alleged that she was trapped by Nag who managed to snap obscene pictures of her with influential persons and later blackmailed them.
