Dhruv Rathee flies to London and joins ‘Jantar Mantar’ protest
A Delhi court issued fresh bailable warrants on Saturday against YouTuber Dhruv Rathee in a 2018 defamation case, according to Bar and Bench. The case was filed by Vikas Sanskrityayan over Rathee's video titled "BJP IT Cell Part II." Judicial Magistrate First Class South East Rahul Jain issued the warrants after learning Rathee's house was locked during an attempt to serve an earlier summons notice.
The court listed the matter for further proceedings on October 31, with a detailed order pending. Sanskrityayan accused Rathee of making false allegations in the video, which was published and circulated by him. Rathee, currently in India for protests against Chief Election Commissioner and the SIR exercise, was summoned in 2019. Further proceedings are scheduled for October 31.
