"The contents of the mail are not true but being circulated to tarnish the company's image," Raju added.

Taking a serious note, the management ordered an internal enquiry asking the IT department to track the sender.

The IT department tracked the IP address of the mail and handed it over to the management, which in turn gave it to the police for further investigation.

The Cubbon park police, who conducted preliminary investigations, suspected that it could be a handiwork of an insider; some employee might be trying to tarnish the image of the victim, out of jealousy.

"We have identified a suspect and are trying to get more proof to nail him," an investigating officer said.
