Ankita Bhandari case: ‘To Malign a Person’s Image to Implicate Them in a Concluded Murder Case Is a Serious Issue’: Uttaranchal HC Quashes Two FIRs Against Former MLA; Orders Probe
Four FIRs were filed against former MLA Suresh Rathore arising from social media posts projecting complainants as involved in the Ankita Bhandari murder, a case that had already concluded with three convictions and life sentences. Two were lodged by persons who were neither the victim nor the affected party, covering the same allegations as the victim’s own FIR.
