Today, On 20th January, The Kerala High Court raised doubts about the POCSO case filed against journalists from Reporter TV. The Court observed that neither the minor girl involved nor her guardians had lodged any complaint. It assured that the journalists would be granted bail if arrested. The case has drawn attention to the role of media and legal procedures in such matters.
The Supreme Court of India found a police inspector and a magistrate guilty of unlawfully arresting and remanding an accused, in violation of a standing court order. The court held them accountable for contempt, emphasizing the duty to uphold the rule of law and protect citizens’ rights, amounting to a serious breach of trust.
