Justice Partha Sarathi Chatterjee of the Calcutta High Court is facing online threats and abuse after denying bail to social media influencer Sharmistha Panoli, who was arrested for posting a sensitive video. Despite her deletion of the video and apology, the judge’s decision has sparked violent backlash against him online.
Sharmishta Panoli, a 22-year-old law student and influencer from Pune, was arrested for a controversial video on Operation Sindoor that sparked public outrage and led to her being placed in judicial custody until June 13. Despite apologizing and deleting the video, criticism and legal actions followed her arrest, raising political concerns about misuse of police powers.
