@Chinmayi, I have a lot of respect for u as a person. You continue to be a strong voice in support of the rights of vulnerable women. Kudos.
However, I wonder if you are brave enough now to call out to people to #StopTrialByMedia, before you have another bit.ly/2TCWrWq?

U highlighted allegns of a few disgruntled ex-students against Siva Shankar Baba. U saw the SM maelstrom.
And yet,
bit.ly/2TGe07T Snr Advocate,00:24: 164 statements of witnesses were produced, perused, court agreed that no incriminating evidence produced, granted bail.

bit.ly/3ylNeR5 Learned advocate's view - there is no evidence. 2:34 secs in: "Complaint is to damage Baba. There is something wrong going on. This I'm able to determine clearly"

bit.ly/36ebo3R credible journalist 11:30 mins in: question arises whether all this is being said with an ulterior motive. 13:05 mins in: ஒரு விஷயத்தை திரித்தும், மறைத்தும், விருப்பத்திற்க்கேற்ப மாற்றியும் சொல்வதனால் media loses credibility.

Who is the real victim?

You retweet bit.ly/3dHHLfq where hackers planted evidence in the defendant's laptops, and yet, believe everything unsubstantiated that you read in SM, even when the court has decided that 164 witness statements had no credible evidence?

U stand-up for abused women's rights. What are u going to do to seek redress for Sushmita, arrested with a 4-month suckling infant, kept in custody for 10 days on a trumped-up, baseless, vindictive FIR? (Snr Advocate's words, not mine)
