 "Rohit Ranjan")
The Supreme Court on Friday granted relief to Zee News anchor Rohit Ranjan, protecting the journalist in multiple FIRs registered against him over an alleged doctored video of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's speech.
The vacation bench of Justices Indira Banerjee and JK Maheshwari passed an interim order restraining respondent authorities from taking coercive steps to take Ranjan in custody, reports ANI.
In the plea filed through law firm Karanjawala and Co, the petitioner, Ranjan had sought various reliefs including quashing of FIRs filed against him or clubbing of multiple FIRs lodged against him in connection with a "misleading show".
