- Location: Janak Puri, New Delhi, New Delhi, Delhi, India
Hannah Hamid was a final year B.Sc (Chemistry) student at a private college in Thodupuzha. She was trolled in the social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter etc. for selling fish in the market after college hours. A false rumour was also spread that she is an actress who is promoting her film by selling fish in the market. Thereafter, she was stopped by the Police to sell fish in the market and people of her native place also started to misbehave with her. After the intervention of the national media and social activists trolling was stopped and rumours were unveiled. Her true story was shown i.e., she is a brave girl who sells fish in the market to pay fees for her education and earn bread for her house. As her father is a drunkard and her mother is not in a condition to earn money. Thereafter, the Chief Minister of Kerala ordered an investigation and gave a shop to Hannah for selling fish. In this case, due to the intervention of the national media and social activists, Hannah got justice. But there are many cyberbullying cases where national media or social activists are not able to reach to rescue them.
