MUMBAI: After a teenager was embroiled in a controversy over obscene comments being posted in a Facebook account against Raj Thackeray, another case of objectionable online content has emerged from Palghar.
This time, an FB account used by a 39-year-old Palghar journalist has allegedly been hacked to upload objectionable images and abusive remarks against Bal Thackeray. The local Shiv Sena unit was aware of the matter but refrained from acting on it.
Mohammed Hussain (39), who runs a fortnightly newspaper, realized on Thursday evening that the FB account he had opened in the paper's name had been hacked. He submitted a written complaint to the Palghar police early on Friday. The cops, however, were yet to register a case and were likely to forward the complaint to the Thane cyber crime cell. A CD containing the images was also handed over to the police.
"Someone told me about objectionable content being posted in my account," said Hussain, adding that he was unable to log in after that. The account was deleted on Friday.
