HC asks Delhi police on action taken over ‘offensive tweets’ against Zubair

NT Correspondent

New Delhi: The Delhi High Court criticised the Delhi Police on Friday for its inaction vis-a-vis Jagdish Singh, who is accused of delivering a hate speech against Mohammed Zubair, the co-founder of Alt News.

Justice Anup Jairam Bhambhani said that the Court would not be doing its duty if no action is taken against Singh for making hate speech against Zubair. "You went hammer and tongs against him (Zubair). But the case has now ended in a whimper as it should have because there was no evidence against him. But what action have you taken against this man (Singh)," the Court asked Delhi Police's counsel, according to Bar and Bench.
