TRP case: ‘ARG Outlier, Arnab Goswami carrying on vendetta against Mumbai police’

The Mumbai police has claimed that ARG Outlier Media Pvt Limited, which runs Republic TV, and its editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami, are carrying out “vendetta” against the police force through their TV channels and that Goswami is “directly interfering and intimidating witnesses by issuing news releases”.

Earlier this week, through affidavits filed before a division bench of Justice S S Shinde and Justice Manish Pitale, which is hearing a plea by ARG seeking quashing of the FIR in the TRP case, the Mumbai police denied allegations of “falsely implicating” employees of the petitioner.

The Mumbai police, through Shashank Sandbhor, Assistant Commissioner of Police, CID, Crime Branch, filed the affidavit in reply to the plea.
