On May 30, 2023, a misleading tweet alleged that Senior Advocate Pradeep Rai was summoned for questioning by the STF and falsely connected him to a conman. The tweet was deleted within two hours, but it damaged Rai’s reputation. AajTak later apologized, and mediation for a defamation case is ongoing.
Today (20th March): The Delhi High Court has summoned Mahua Moitra in response to a defamation suit filed by advocate Jai Anant Dehadrai. Both parties were instructed to refrain from making defamatory statements against each other. The case, scheduled for its next hearing on April 8, is related to allegations made by Dehadrai against Moitra regarding past relationships and bribery accusations.
