Mumbai, Mach 27 :  The Mumbai Mirror on Sunday reported that  the cyber crime police have questioned Mandira Bedi's husband Raj Kaushal  in connection with the Sea Link tweets.


The report said, investigations reveal that the rumours about three cables of the bridge snapping on March 23 may have originated from Twitter posts by film director Raj Kaushal and one Deesha Kapadia Film director Raj Kaushal was questioned by the Cyber Crime police station at Bandra Kurla Complex on Saturday, in connection with a rumour in the city on March 23, which said three supporting cables of the Bandra Worli Sea Link had snapped.  

Initial investigations have revealed that the rumour may have originated from posts on Twitter by Kaushal, who is actress Mandira Bedi's husband, and one Deesha Kapadia, on the same day. The two have also been named by Hindustan Construction Company (HCC) which built the sea link, as the persons who sent the tweets, in their complaint.

According to sources, Kaushal, in his statement to the police, claimed that the tweet did not originate from his mobile phone but he had received it from someone else.

“Kaushal claimed to have re-tweeted or resent the information to others,” sources in the Cyber Crime police station told Mumbai Mirror. Police said they have already initiated moves to get data from the internet service provider and concerned portals to find out where the tweet originated and how it moved from one person to another on the portal.  

“We will cross check information gathered from these sources with the information provided by Kaushal. If needed, we may call him again,” a senior police officer said.

On March 23, several tweets claiming that three supporting cables of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link had snapped surfaced on Twitter, and it started a rumour that spread panic among the people who constructed the bridge, and those who are maintaining it. The tweets advised people not to use the sea link due to its precarious condition.  The 5.6 km Bandra-Worli Sea Link was opened in June 2009. It was built at a cost of Rs 1,600 crore and over 35,000 vehicles use it every day.
