NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court on Friday declined to entertain a request to control the press from’sensationalising’ the trial of wrestler and Olympic medallist Sushil Kumar in relation to the passing of a 23-year older guy, also seeking principles for reporting criminal situations, stating a PIL can’t be registered for an person who’s a”watchful individual”.
A seat of Chief Justice D N Patel and Justice Jyoti Singh explained the request was registered on behalf of a”watchful man” – Kumar – asserting that press has defamed him from its own reportage of this murder situation where he’s an accused.
“you can’t record a PIL for a single person.
We find no reason to amuse lawsuit on behalf of an watchful individual,” the court stated and disposed of this plea with a law student.
