Republic TV approaches Bombay HC to quash the FIR in TRP scam

MUMBAI: Arnab Goswami has filed a writ petition before the Bombay High Court seeking directions for quashing of FIR against the channel and its employees in the TRP scam case. Moreover, Goswami has sought the directions for transferring TRP scam case probe from Mumbai Police to Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

Earlier, Goswami had moved Supreme Court but was asked to approach the High Court and refused to entertain the writ petition. The apex court also added that the office of Republic TV is closer to the Bombay High Court and it is the appropriate forum to approach before coming to Supreme Court.
