Being a Muslim isn't easy in India.
A Chandigarh court on Monday denied bail to Hassan Siddiqui, a Hyderabad resident arrested for posting a video allegedly showing PM Narendra Modi.
The judge calls the allegations serious and claims that his release could lead to a disturbance of public order.
Siddiqui was booked for sharing and commenting on the clip, which he claimed depicted the PM.
Meanwhile, the woman (Madhu Kishwar) who originally posted the exact same video walks free, and the thousands who amplified it sleep peacefully at home.
