No the boy can't file any case of mental harassment. Rather the girl should file a criminal complaint against that boy for harassing, bkackmaili and threatening her. She should do it immediately before that boy does any more harm to her and her reputation.

No he can't file a case for mental harassment and High Court is not the appropriate authority. Instead the girl can lodge an FIR under different provisions of IPC for harassment and threat to upload pictures.

Indian penal and cyber laws provide a comprehensive protection layer to indian women against such stalker, blackmailer who try to outrage the modesty of any women in any manner whatsoever. So u don’t need to worry that u will be in trouble if he files any such case n in furtherance over ur doubt I would like to clear that even if he files any such case for mental harassment in court, such frivolous complaint will not be maintainable n court will dismiss the said complaint. It would be highly recommended from my side if u approach a local cyber crime cell n tell them that u have an apprehension that ur ex boyfriend has some of ur private pics which he threatens to make viral on social media therefore u want to lodge a complaint against such person
