| A criminal case crime No 72/2011 under section 153, 153 A(1)(a), 153 A(1)(b), 153 A(1)(c), 153-B, 290, 504, 505 (1), 505 (2),506 IPC and section 66 A Information Technology Act 2000 has been registered against Facebook Inc.(USA) and others at police station Gomti Nagar, District- Lucknow. The complainant is my husband Amitabh Thakur, an IPS officer of UP Cadre. The FIR says that Facebook social networking site is seen and shown all across the country through Internet. On this various groups are formed. One of these is "i hate gandhi". On this site, open abuses and dirty words are used against Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of our Nation. These dirty words and abuses are of such nature that they are wantonly giving provocation with intent to cause riot when riot is not committed (sec 153 IPC), promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of communities and other grounds etc. and doing acts prejudicial to maintenance of harmony (153A IPC), Imputations, assertions prejudicial to national-integration (sec 153 B IPC), public nuisance (290 IPC), Intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace (sec 504 IPC), criminal intimidation (sec 506 IPC) and using Information Technology for these purposes (sec 66A IT Act). Thus the prayer by Amitabh Thakur says that all these words are such that they have been used to intentionally and deliberately provoke the above mentioned crimes. Dr Nutan Thakur, |
