What if a Twitter handle @SupremeCourtIn is not verified by the Supreme Court?
crpc_bnss clat_ug advanced hypotheticalImagine the Twitter handle @SupremeCourtIn, claiming to be the official Twitter account of the Supreme Court, starts spreading misinformation about a landmark judgment. The account has 10 Lakh followers and is trending on Twitter. Meanwhile, the actual Twitter handle of the Supreme Court @SCOfIndia is verified and has only 50,000 followers. The misinformation spreads like wildfire, creating confusion among the citizens.
In this scenario, what would be the legal outcome under the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) and the Information Technology (IT) Act?
