Shocking

Twitter found 'no violation' of its community standards

In what came as another rude shock for Richa, Twitter did not find anything objectionable with the threatening message.

When another user asked her to report the 'specific' tweet, she wrote, "I did. They said 'no violation within context'."

Several people came out in her support and targeted those at the helm of the micro-blogging website.

Farhan Akhtar too called out Twitter management

Top management at Twitter must regroup and decide what they’d like their service to be remembered for.
If it’s for good, then they need to get smarter in its regulation. Rape and death threats cannot be allowed or go unpunished. @twitter @TwitterIndia
