New Delhi:
The Delhi Police have charged NewsClick founder Prabir Purkayastha and human resources head of the news portal Amit Chakraborty for allegedly acting at the behest of the “Chinese State,” their “ultimate paymaster.”
The charge sheet filed under the anti-terror law, Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), is primarily based on the police’s interpretation of strings of email exchanged between Mr. Purkayastha, American millionaire Neville Roy Singham and few others (whose role in the case is under investigation), along with the testimonies of protected witnesses, who include employees of the news portal.
