Sr Adv N Hariharan: They have dragged father and wants to record Sextion 164 croc statement. If investigation is complete then why to record it now. You say chargesheet is filed and now this. Police man can be seen dragging the father. The father is right here. He was asked not to change the statement. If trial is there then he will be summoned. He was dragged by police..these two hospitals have filed affidavits saying the child was alive..where is the need for coercion.Image
Hariharan: As far as this situation is concerned. The investigation officers etc are behaving very differently. Not a single person examined in the hospital. Why is it that they are shielding the hospital. This requires a probe

Delhi court orders FIR against Abhijit Iyer-Mitra for objectionable posts about Newslaundry’ Manisha Pande and other journalists.

@Iyervval @MnshaP @newslaundry Image
The court says that Iyer-Mitta made sexually coloured remarks against Pande and other journalists and the same are prima facie intended to insult Pande and she has been named in the tweet as well.

“Therefore, on perusal of
the application and the material placed on record by the
complainant, this Court is of the view that the content of the
tweets posted by the accused on “X” platform discloses
commission of cognizable offences under section 75(3) and 79 of
BNS,” the court says.
“This Court is of the view that police investigation is necessary as the offence has been committed in cyber space on platform "X". Therefore, police investigation is necessary to verify the user account on platform "X" from which the said tweets were published. Further police investigation is also necessary to trace and recover the computer source/electronic device from which the said tweets were published. This Court is also of the view that the Action Taken Report which was filed by PSI Ombir in the present case is not satisfactory as the above stated tweets were not considered in the report,” the court adds.
