Tweeter arrested; India's march toward a true police state continues
http://j.mp/Wc0FPS (The Hindu)
"Does a tweet on reports of corruption, sent out to 16 followers,
deserve a possible penalty of three years of imprisonment? The answer
seems to be yes, at least according to Congress leader and Union
Finance Minister P. Chidambaram's son Karti, who filed a complaint
against small-time Puducherry businessman Ravi Srinivasan, and the
Puducherry police which charged Mr. Srinivasan under Section 66-A of
the Information Technology Act, 2008."
