Washington: Tesla CEO Elon Musk has become the new owner of the social media platform Twitter. According to media reports, Twitter CEO Parag Agarwal and CFO Ned Segal have been fired from the job only after Elon Musk became the owner. Not only this, both the officers have also been thrown out of the company headquarters.

Elon Musk announced the purchase of Twitter on April 13 this year. He had offered to buy the social media platform for  $44 billion at $54.2 a share. But, then due to spam and fake accounts, he put that deal on hold. After this, on July 8, Musk decided to break the deal. Against this, Twitter moved the court. But then in early October, Musk changed his stance and agreed to complete the deal again. Meanwhile, the Delaware court ordered the deal to be completed by October 28. Elon Musk surprised everyone by reaching Twitter's office a day earlier. 

Media reports quoted people associated with the case as saying that Musk fired Twitter CEO Parag Agarwal, CFO Ned Segal and Legal Affairs-Policy Head Vijaya Gadde. Musk had accused the social media platform of misleading him and Twitter investors about the number of fake accounts. According to sources, Agarwal and Segal were present in the office when Elon Musk's deal with Twitter was completed. After this, he was thrown out of the office. However, there was no statement from Twitter, Elon Musk or any official about this.
