Delete my name, said the man who was released, Madras HC agreed

Madurai: As a simple Google search can make or improve a person’s character, the name must be removed (obscured for legal or security purposes) from the assessment if he was released in a criminal case, Madras High Court has argued.
Requesting individual rights to privacy and the right to forget, justice and Venkatesh said Google search will bring up court assessment, and a person’s name will be displayed against alleged crime even after he is released from all assessments.
However, considering the deep consequences, the Redac command will bring, the High Court has chosen to hear the view of the bar members, including prosecution, before giving a detailed order about this problem.
A man who tried to rape and cheating, was punished and punished by the court of trial in 2011, but he was released from all charges by the High Court in 2014.
He has now approached the High Court to redeem his name from the assessment.
Justice Anand Venkates observed that the applicant was now facing a very strange problem because his name was reflected in the assessment as the defendant, even though he was released from all charges.
“Unfortunately, anyone who typed the name Applicant on Google-search was able to access the assessment of this court.
According to the applicant it caused a serious impact on his reputation in the eyes of the public,” he said.
Approved with the male dispute, the court said, “Today, the world is literally under the grip of social media,” adding that someone’s background is assessed by everyone through Google search and the first impression is made depending on the data provided.
“This will make or Mar’s characteristic of a person in the eyes of the public,” observes justice Anand Venkatesh.
Existing laws protect the identity of women and children’s victims, and their names are not reflected in every command authorized by the court, the judge said, adding: “This right has not been expanded to the person who is accused of being released from all costs.” The judge increasingly observed was also taken to this court notice that when a similar problem appeared before the Delhi High Court recently, the command was temporarily passed to direct the website concerned to calm the name of the applicant.
“This is also notified to the court that new rights called ‘rights to be forgotten’ are sought to be included in the list of available rights based on Article 21 of the Constitution,” he said.
The judge asked for the help of a member of the bar in this case and post this case until July 28 for further hearing.
