Tweet Claims CJI Chandrachud’s Family Member Linked To Doctor’s Lobby In Bengal, Complaint Filed
The tweet came ahead of the hearing by the three judges bench of Supreme Court headed by CJI in the suo motu case relating to the rape and murder of a doctor in Calcutta's RG Kar Medical College.

The Supreme Court Registry on Monday filed a complaint with the Cyber Cell over a malicious tweet linking Chief Justice of India (CJI) D Y Chandrachud’s family member to a doctors lobby in West Bengal.

The tweet came ahead of the hearing by the three judges bench of Supreme Court headed by CJI in the suo motu case relating to the rape and murder of a doctor in Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College.

As per the officials, a malicious tweet had been circulated on X ahead of the Supreme Court hearing on the Kolkata rape and murder case attempting to link a member of the family of the Chief Justice of India with a medical lobby in Bengal.

“The tweet is ill intended, factually incorrect and an attempt to malign the judiciary,” said the Supreme Court registry in its complaint lodged before the Cyber Cell here in Delhi.

The West Bengal Police too tweeted about a fake message being spread regarding the same. “It has come to our notice that extremely derogatory and baseless aspersions are being cast by some people in social media about the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India including the Hon’ble Chief Justice of India.”

“Exploiting freedom of speech to indulge in wild falsehood, that too against the Hon’ble Apex Court, is illegal and punishable. Sternest possible legal action will be initiated against those trying to malign the judiciary,” it added.
