Martin Shkreli and other people who've been suspended or banned from Twitter
- Published
Former US drug executive Martin Shkreli has been suspended by Twitter for harassing a female journalist.
He hit the headlines after raising the price of an Aids drug by more than 5,000%.
Shkreli, a supporter of Donald Trump, was accused of hounding freelance reporter Lauren Duca.
It included sending her requests for dates after she wrote an article for Teen Vogue that was critical of the President-elect.
Shkreli raised the price of anti-parasitic drug Daraprim from $13.50 to $750 a dose while head of Turing Pharmaceuticals LLC before having to step down in 2015.
He's also the man who bought the only copy of Wu-Tang Clan's album Once Upon A Time in Shaolin.
Twitter introduced stricter rules targeting harassment and intimidation in 2015.
A new "quality filter" was also launched last autumn designed to allow users to deal with trolls and abusive posts more easily.
A number of high-profile celebrities and other famous faces have since been banned.
