The Kerala Union of Working Journalists, Delhi Unit, has moved the Supreme Court under Article 32 over the alleged detention and assault of journalists covering the 10 and 11 October protests in Delhi. The allegations are untested.
The Kerala High Court dismissed the POCSO case against Asianet News, acknowledging the channel’s responsible reporting on drug abuse. The court stated that the channel “deserved recognition” for its work, and emphasized that no further proceedings would be pursued at the Special POCSO Court in Kozhikode.
