Jadavpur University professor arrested for spreading 'anti-Mamata' cartoons

-CNN-IBN
 
A Jadavpur University professor was arrested on Friday morning for allegedly spreading "anti-Mamata Banerjee" cartoons on the Internet. Ambikesh Mahapatra, a teacher with the Chemistry Department of the University, was picked up on Thursday night by the police for allegedly forwarding cartoons of the Bengal Chief Minister.
 
The cartoon based on Satyajit Ray's movie Sonar Kella, allegedly show Mamata and Railways Minister Mukul Roy discussing how to get rid of party MP Dinesh Trivedi.

He has been booked for defaming Mamata. Section 66 of the Information Technology Act, 2000 has been slapped on the professor, who was arrested on charges of forwarding "derogatory images" of the West Bengal Chief Minister to nearly 65 recipients and mocking her government policies.
 
Sources say it is quite an unprecedented incident and point out that Mamata is becoming increasingly intolerant to any incident that shows her in bad light, even if may be innocuous.
 
The professor will now be produced in the Alipore court.
