The website of the Supreme Court of India is down, again.

The top court’s website was not loading on Friday, 20 April. This comes a day after the apex court website was allegedly hacked by a Brazilian group – this was, coincidentally, when the SC was pronouncing its judgment in the Judge BH Loya case.

On Thursday, 19 April, top court officials had confirmed that the website had been "non-functional" since 11:35 am and that they were in touch with the NIC. All efforts were being made to restore normalcy, officials added. However, they were non-committal on confirming whether the website had been hacked or not.

In Thursday’s hack, no one claimed responsibility but a screenshot of the page suggested that the act could be the handiwork of a group of hackers from Brazil.
