Delhi Court Orders Apology to Mohammad Zubair
News summary

The Delhi High Court has ordered Jagdish Singh, an 'X' user, to apologize to journalist Mohammad Zubair for an offensive tweet in which he called Zubair a 'jihadi'. Justice Anup Jairam Bhambhani instructed Singh to post an apology on his social media handle within a week, retaining it for two months, while also emphasizing the need for temperance on social media. The court acknowledged that Singh had expressed regret to the police, claiming no malicious intent in his comment. Zubair previously faced a POCSO FIR due to Singh's comments, which the police later closed, finding no wrongdoing on Zubair's part. The court directed that Zubair should not retweet or use the apology in any legal actions against Singh. This case highlights ongoing concerns about hate speech and accountability on social media platforms.
