Earlier on Saturday, an FIR was registered by the Delhi Police against The Wire on BJP leader Amit Malviya's complaint. Malviya registered a complaint alleging that the news website "forged documents with a view to malign and tarnish" his reputation.
Delhi Police said that it has seized electronic devices (mobiles, laptops) from the residences of Siddharth Varadarajan, MK Venu, and others.
No notice was given to anyone and no inquiry has taken place today. Further investigation is going on and necessary steps will be taken, added the Delhi Police.
Malviya, who is head of BJP's Information and Technology Cell, had filed a criminal complaint against 'The Wire' and its top editors with the Special Commissioner of Police (Crime) on Saturday.
In his complaint, the BJP leader had sought registration of FIR under sections 420, 468, 469, 471, 500 r/w 120B and 34 of the Indian Penal Code.
In FIR names mentioned are 'The Wire', its founding editors Siddharth Vardarajan, Siddharth Bhatia and MK Venu, and Jahnavi Sen, deputy editor and executive news producer.
