TWITTER BANS KANGANA AFTER ‘HATEFUL CONDUCT’

NEW DELHI:

Twitter has permanently suspended actor Kangana Ranaut’s account for repeated violations of rules, specifically its “hateful conduct and abusive behaviour policy”, the social media company site said in a statement on Tuesday.

The actor’s handle @Kanganateam now displays the message: account suspended. Ranaut, known for her often inflammatory tweets, posted several messages following the Trinamool Congress’s win over the BJP in West Bengal and incidents of post-poll violence.

Reacting to the ban, Ranaut said, “Twitter has only proved my point they are Americans and by birth, a white person feels entitled to enslave a brown person.”
