Mother of 10-year-old influencer seeks legal action against YouTubers for alleged defamation
Mathura: The mother of 10-year-old influencer Abhinav Arora, widely known as Bal Sant Baba, has approached a Mathura court seeking the registration of a criminal case against seven YouTubers, accusing them of defaming her son and promoting hatred against his religious practices. According to reports, she claimed that the videos uploaded by these individuals were intended to mock the young preacher’s beliefs and invade his privacy.
The petition, filed on Monday, stated that the actions of the accused YouTubers have caused “immense emotional suffering” to her son, preventing him from freely practicing his religion. Additionally, the complaint alleged that the content promoted hate against Hinduism and disturbed religious harmony.
The mother also sought the registration of an FIR under multiple charges, including criminal conspiracy, outraging religious sentiments, criminal defamation, intimidation, and extortion. She claimed that despite her initial complaint to the police, no action was taken.
In a related development, she reported a life threat from the group of jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, with a message threatening her son’s life.

UP: Misled by GPS navigation, car falls into river from partially constructed bridge, 3 dead
Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.
The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.
"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.
The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.
There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.
Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.
The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
