Mohammed Zubair Case: Do The Police Have The Right To Unfettered Access To Your Phones, Laptops?

- Following the arrest of fact checker and AltNews co-founder, Mohammed Zubair, a team of the Delhi Police flew Zubair to his Bengaluru home to recover his electronic devices as part of the investigation.
Why, you would wonder. His arrest, after all, only pertained to one anonymous twitter handle taking objection to a tweet Zubair had put out in 2018. Is this as Zubair’s lawyer Vrinda Grover argued, an attempt to “conduct a fishing inquiry” beyond the scope of the present case.
Then there have been multiple cases of WhatsApp chats of individuals like Deepika Padukone, Aryan Khan being accessed by the police and released to the media. There’ve been reports of the Hyderabad police stopping motorists and compelling them to part with their biometrics, unlocking their devices and reading their personal communication. Does the law really provide the police with unfettered access to our electronic devices?
We put these questions to senior advocate and a veteran of criminal law, Rebecca John.

Oh really ??? Isn't the logic applicable for these feminists when a husband is arrested or punished merely by the word of women without any evidence??
Great interview laying out the law. Subscribed.
Stand for fact check reporter
Stand for constitution rights ❤️
Rebecca is just unreasonably hypocritical. She wants to say police should not have power to arrest this man without any strong evidences but the same Rebecca said husbands and men should be arrested without evidence on a claim of him committing rape no matter if it is false or true, direct arrest.
She is just biased .
Great questions and very clear and informative answers!
Very informative. End of the day, it is all based on, how implement the laws. The more irregularities in cases like Zubair, the less credibility and confidence for the citizens on the law enforcement institutions. Hope, the people in charge, will fix the problems and bring credibility back, without which we ends up into deep chaos.
Thanks to Adv Rebecca John.
Great
Q bakwas kr rahi hai. Let police & law has to do their work.
Free zubair
Mother of Adv Rebecca John was been murdered by two accused who were muslim jihadis and still she supporting jihadi.... No wonder to see because jo maa ki nhi hui wo kisi ki nhi ho sakti.
Then why cry for zubair arrest ....future men will be arrested without hearing his side of story ...just stronger version of 498a...
Supporters of “sar tan se juda”…

Stop supporting zubir. You anti India media
Unsubscribed anti india channel
Isn't this channel foriegn (European/western) funded? Just a thought.
B jp is sitting on 5000 crores of cash (declared amount) through anonymous donations called Electoral bonds. Even RBI cannot track where these donations come from. They get 90% of all such political funds. Did you ever question them how they got that much money?
@@amols101 wanna cry ?
Mhmd zubair(not a journalist ) was posting pictures and words against hindu community from past 1 1/2 years. And 56 lakh rupees has been credited to his account in the last 3 months, from Pakistan and syria.
So thode se paiso ke liye apni aatma matt becho scroll.in
