In this piece, I examine how S.P.S.Rathore managed to get relief from the High Court (in 2002) and the Supreme Court (in 2005)when the national media went into a deep slumber. Even now, the specific reasons cited by the HC and the SC have not been subjected to critical scrutiny by the media.
In another piece, I wonder whether the case would have caused national outrage, if the Law Commission’s 200th Report on Trial by Media had been followed in letter and spirit.
Yes, thats a valid point.
