Online trolls have increased rampantly post Sushant Singh Rajput’s demise. Meanwhile, Karan Johar has been off social media since Sushant’s death. After Shaheen and Rhea, Karan Johar is planning to take legal action against online trolls. He has also been subjected to online threats amid nepotism debate.
Talking about it, one of Karan’s close aide stated, “Karan is actively pursuing legal action. A team of lawyers, as well as online tech experts, have come together to see this through. The tech people in the team are tracking the social media handles that are trying to intimidate him through violence. They want to unearth these accounts, fake and real and submit the evidence to the relevant authorities.”
Now, if anyone is caught abusing or writing violent messages online would be liable to pay lakhs of rupees as fine along with the hefty imprisonment that comes with it under Section 67 of the IT Act and Section 507 IPC of the Indian legislation.
