The Malappuram Cyber Police have launched a formal investigation following an online defamation incident targeting Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) leader Syyid Sadiq Ali Shihab Thangal. The probe began on Monday after circulating defamatory content was reported to the authorities.
According to police sources, a defamatory social media post against Thangal was observed on Sunday evening. Although the post was quickly removed, its contents had already been widely disseminated across various social media platforms. Acting swiftly, the IUML filed a complaint to ensure the matter received attention.
