Chinmayi approaches police against Twitter taunts

Chinmayi approaches police against Twitter taunts

Playback singer Chinmayi knocked on City Police Commissioner’s door to take action against those bullying her in the cyber-space, here on Thursday.

Chinmayi, in her complaint, stated that there were harsh remarks by a few persons in the social media. Such remarks were reflecting in her Twitter and Facebook accounts, she said. She also pointed out the audacious comments when she disagreed to a point in the social media which went on to say that she had to be raped and cut to pieces to teach her a lesson. Her attempts to block the Twitter handles that were making such obscene remarks were greeted with a backlash, a virtual campaign projecting her as anti-Tamil, Tamil tweeters and Tamil bloggers.

She had submitted proofs for such objectionable content posted against her in the social media with the Commissioner. Her complaint also charged that a producer had not paid her for two shows organised. 

After lodging a complaint she tweeted as following in her twitter handle @Chinmayi: Mom and I filed a case at the Commissioner’s office today. Hopefully some people will be brought to book.
