AGAINST the backdrop of the police complaint and subsequent arrest in a case of cyber abuse against actor Honey Rose, concerns have emerged in the public domain about whether a comment or reply can lead to detention.

Furthermore, it is classified as a non-bailable offence," said M K Murali, assistant commissioner of Kochi City Cyber Police.
