Brittas, in his letter stated, he sent police screenshots, news links, social media posts and other information indicating “cyber attack” against Misri and his family, and kin of survivor N. Ramachandran and of Lt. Vinay Narwal who died in the attack.
An officer said, “An FIR has not been registered. We always ask our complainants to furnish evidence, especially in cases of online harassment.” HTC
