TOI: Om Prakash Chautala episode gets HC clearance

The Delhi High Court recently set aside the order of its single judge bench restraining Sony TV channel from telecasting an episode of Crime Patrol Dastak based on the teachers' recruitment scam involving former Haryana CM Om Prakash Chautala.

A division bench of Justice Pradeep Nandrajog and Justice Pratibha Rani, gave out a court order, allowing the telecast of the episode. The court, in its order, said, "Witnesses have spoken. Documents have been proved. The evidence is in public domain. The broadcast claims to be a dramatic description of the documentary and ocular evidence. Whether or not the presentation commented on the merits of the case could only be determined after viewing the proposed programme and reading the transcript."

The bench, allowing the plea of Multi Screen Media Pvt. Ltd., said that the former Haryana chief minister and others have not been able to demonstrate that a substantial risk of prejudice would be caused to them if the programme is telecast.

The trial court last month sentenced Chautala, his son Ajay Chautala and eight others to 10 years in jail after convicting them of illegally recruiting 3,206 junior basic trained teachers in Haryana in 2000.

it is so obvious that they are wrong that's why they stopped the telecast
