Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Vivek Bhagat filed the complaint against the journalist. The court issued a notice to the Delhi Police and ACP Bhagat, asking them to file their replies before November 16. The journalist's lawyer claimed that the FIR was lodged to intimidate her from pursuing the complaint. The case is being investigated by the Delhi Police Crime Branch.",
