Further the said impostor could then misuse the said user name for the purposes of tweeting tweets which could show the said legal entity in a wrong or negative light by defaming or destroying its reputation.

Incase if things are not resolved there, then the matter would need to be a escalated to relevant court of law in a competent jurisdiction.
