"From your email, I have come to know the factum that my computer resources including my email ids, mobile phone and WhatsApp messages have been hacked and that unknown cyber criminals have gone ahead and have unauthorisedly accessed my computer resources and communication devices and further committed various criminal activities."He said he had filed complaints regarding the hacking with the commissioner of police, the controller of certifying authorities and the adjudicating officer under the Information Technology Act."The entire computer outputs on the basis of which the said complaint has been filed and on the basis of which your questions are raised are completely false, fabricated, forged and manipulated," Pachauri said in his email to ET. "Your questions have no connection with truth."He further asked that no story be published with regard to the allegations until the investigations had been completed. Pachauri is also chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which was joint winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007.
