The Court said the UP police had abused its authority in prosecuting the man, and directed a forensic test to verify if the senior officer had used a communal slur in an audio clip. The Muslim citizen had been prosecuted for forwarding the audio clip to Tyagi and asking him whether the voice heard was indeed his. The Court stated that the prosecution should never have been initiated and also noted that the State of Uttar Pradesh has itself sought to withdraw the case.
