more-inA case of ‘cyber terrorism’ has been registered against a man for posting a video clip on Facebook on cow slaughter here in Denkanikottai. The police registered the case under Section 66 F of the IT Act (committing the offence of cyber terrorism) and Section 153 (A) of IPC (promoting enmity between groups) based on a complaint from Vishwa Hindu Parishad on Tuesday. The man in the video, Sadiq Basha, 26, a butcher who deals with beef in Denkanikottai, had posted the clip on his Facebook account. The 12-second video clip has Sadiq Basha holding a severed head of a cow and a sword and stifling a giggle even as he promised revenge against cow vigilantes. The videographer is seen prompting the Urdu words even as Mr. Basha is seen laughing.
