Twitter India's chief was questioned by the Delhi Police last month in the case involving an alleged "Congress toolkit", sources said today.

Manish Maheshwari, Managing Director of Twitter in India, was questioned by the Delhi Police Special Cell in Bengaluru on May 31.

This was a week after Delhi Police teams went to Twitter's offices in Delhi and Gurgaon after serving two notices over BJP leader Sambit Patra's tweet on an alleged "Congress toolkit" being marked as "manipulated media".

Details of the questioning are emerging at a time Twitter faces charges including inciting communal hate over posts on an assault on a Muslim man in Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad.
