Mohadmmad Zubair, the co-founder of fact-checking news platform Alt News was sent to four days of police custody over a 2018 tweet with a still from the film, Kisi se Na Kehna.

Condemnation over his arrest has poured in from all quarters – the UN, journalists, opposition politicians, journalists’ organisations both global and national, celebrities, and concerned citizens.
