The Supreme Court has extended its interim protection to four members of the Editors Guild of India, in connection with the two cases lodged against them over their fact-finding report.
A bench headed by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud said it would extend the operation of its directions – which were issued on September 6 and asked the Manipur police not to take any coercive action against the four – until Friday when it next hears the case. The guild had approached the apex court seeking relief.
