NEW DELHI (Reuters) - A Delhi legislative panel on Tuesday warned Facebook Inc it could face contempt proceedings after its India head failed to show up at a hearing into its alleged role in fanning religious riots in the capital city earlier this year.
The Delhi state parliament's committee had summoned Facebook's India Managing Director Ajit Mohan to answer allegations that the social media giant did not adequately apply hate speech rules and policies, which contributed to the violence that left 50 people dead.
