Criminal cases pending in courts are not decided on TV debates, the Supreme Court held in a judgment on Wednesday.
Any discussion on TV regarding criminal cases in court would amount to “direct interference in administration of criminal justice”, a Bench led by Justice U.U. Lalit observed.
“All matters relating to a crime and whether a particular thing happens to be a conclusive piece of evidence must be dealt with by a court of law and not through a TV channel,” the Supreme Court underscored its disapproval.
