Supreme Court shields journalist Abhishek Upadhyay from coercive action
Journalist Abhishek Upadhyay’s plea claims that an FIR lodged against him by the Ghaziabad Police in an alleged road rage case was based on concocted allegations against him and was an attempt to harass him for his independent journalistic works
The Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered the Uttar Pradesh Police to refrain from any coercive action against Abhishek Upadhyay, an independent journalist who had reported the alleged misappropriation of donations towards the Ayodhya Ram Temple. This came in response to an FIR filed in connection with a road rage incident. Senior advocate Pradeep Rai, representing Mr. Upadhyay, argued that his client had committed the "unforgivable sin" of exposing the Ram Mandir donation issue. The case was heard by a three-judge Bench headed by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant.
