Delhi court rejects complaint against Microsoft

A complaint against Microsoft for allegedly displaying objectionable content on its website was rejected by a Delhi court Thursday.

Administrative Civil Judge Praveen Singh was hearing a petition by Mufti Aijaz Arshad Qasmi, an Islamic researcher linked to a website run by the Islamic Peace Foundation of India, who sought the removal of "objectionable content" from websites.

Microsoft told the court during the hearing that there was no defamatory material posted on its websites.

Yahoo India, also named by the complainant, termed the suit "motivated".
