Justice Singh noted that the present suit highlights the perils of some internet-based businesses, and such instances where unknown persons are infringing and using well-known marks to the detriment of the holder of the mark, are mushrooming at an alarming rate.
The Court added that while there can be no doubt that general criticism and review would be permissible in terms of any business, the fact that the entire website, its operations, the persons and reviews have been totally masked without any details provided whatsoever, clearly gave the feeling that the same was ingenuine and clandestine.
It, therefore, ordered an investigation by the Delhi Police and passed orders for blocking of the website.
