  "account": "A Delhi court has issued a new bailable warrant against YouTuber Dhruv Rathee in a defamation case filed by activist Vikas Sankrityayan, also known as Vikas Pandey. The warrant was issued after Rathee did not attend a hearing, and the previous warrant could not be executed due to incorrect address information. The court questioned the urgency of issuing the warrant as Rathee had reportedly left India. The defamation case stems from a video Rathee uploaded in 2018 alleging that the BJP's IT cell tried to bribe Sankrityayan to discredit him. Sankrityayan, a social media activist, filed the complaint, and the case has remained pending since 2018.",
  "summary": "A Delhi court has issued a fresh bailable warrant against YouTuber Dhruv Rathee in a 2018 criminal defamation case filed by Vikas Sankrityayan over a video alleging BJP's IT cell tried to bribe him. The court has reportedly listed the matter for November 23.",
