The Madras High Court canceled the FIR against OpIndia’s Nupur Sharma and Rahul Roushan, filed over a report on migrant worker attacks in Tamil Nadu. The Supreme Court had earlier granted them protection from arrest.
The court was informed that the defendants were charging a delivery fee for the supposedly free “Ram Mandir prasad.” Additionally, they were selling various Ram Mandir-related merchandise, collectibles, food items, and religious ceremony goods through websites bearing the marks “Khadi Earth” and “Khadi Organic.”
