Hate speech: Bengaluru court dismisses private complaint against PM Modi

Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Court Judge KN Shivakumar dismissed the complaint filed by one Ziaur Rahman, who had approached the Court urging it to take cognisance of the offence under Sections 153A (hate speech), 153B, 295A (hurting religious sentiments), 503, 504 and 505(2) of Indian Penal Code or refer the matter for investigation by the local police.

Rahman claimed before the Court that Modi had tried to divide the nation based on religion by claiming that wealth of Indians, including mangalsutras of women, will be taken away if the Congress came to power.
