The Mumbai cyber police on Friday filed a first information report against All India Bakchod for allegedly “insulting” the prime minister through a tweet.
The FIR was registered after legal consultation at the cyber police station at Bandra-Kurla Complex.
Sanjay Saxena, the joint commissioner of police, confirmed the development.
It all started with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s look-alike being spotted at a railway station.
The photo went viral on social media sites in no time.
AIB was among the many Twitteratis who jumped onto the bandwagon to spread some humour. They posted the doppelganger’s photo alongside an actual photo of Modi’s face with the Snapchat dog filter.
However, not all Twitter users were impressed, and the AIB came under fire from Modi supporters.
Within hours, the group deleted the post fearing more backlash.
Soon enough, some Twitter users started trolling the AIB – this time for being “scared” of the BJP and deleting the tweet.
