Supreme Court grants interim bail to Republic TV’s Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami in abetment to suicide case

The Supreme Court Wednesday said if the State targets individuals then they must realise that the apex court is there to protect them and asked the high courts to not fall short of exercising constitutional duties in protecting ‘personal liberty’. Putting personal liberty at the highest pedestal, the top court observed that if it does not ‘interfere’ in the case relating to arrest of journalist Arnab Goswami in an abetment of suicide case then it would amount to walking on the ‘path of destruction’.
