SSR’s death case seems to be getting entangled in deep turmoil of bitter truth and falseness spread over social media. Since the case has been handled to CBI, new sensations and contradictions of the same news were being revealed frequently. Now the investigation revealed that over 80,000 fake accounts were created on various social media platforms to debunk Mumbai police and Maharashtra government. Mumbai police commission Param Bir Singh asked the cyber cell to investigate the creation of fake accounts under the information technology act.
