Delhi Court Issues Fresh Bailable Warrants Against YouTuber Dhruv Rathee in Defamation Case
A Delhi court issued fresh bailable warrants against YouTuber Dhruv Rathee in an eight-year-old criminal defamation case filed by Vikas Pandey. Previous warrants were unserved due to incorrect addresses and Rathee's absence from India, as he resides in Austria. The case relates to a 2018 video allegedly defaming Pandey, whose reputation was claimed to be harmed after the video was retweeted by Arvind Kejriwal. The next hearing is scheduled for November 23.
