Freezing of bank accounts amounts to harassment, says Chinese firm ByteDance
字节跳动：印度政府冻结其银行账户是骚扰，不合法
ByteDance has told an Indian court that a government freeze on its bank accounts in a probe of possible tax evasion amounts to harassment and was done illegally, according to a filing seen by Reuters. ByteDance in January reduced its Indian workforce after New Delhi maintained a ban on its popular video app TikTok, imposed last year after a border clash between India and China.
4月5日，路透社看到的一份文件显示，短视频应用TikTok母公司字节跳动向印度一家法院表示，印度政府税务部门冻结该公司银行账户的行为是骚扰，是非法的。
路透社报道称，在对该公司财务情况的一个调查中，印度税务当局今年3月份勒令汇丰和花旗两家银行冻结该公司在印度的银行账户。
去年印度对字节跳动旗下热门视频应用TikTok下达禁令，字节跳动于今年1月裁减了部分印度员工。
