The Madras High Court on Thursday closed a writ petition after recording the submission of Greater Chennai City Police (GCCP) that they were in no way interfering with the functionig of Savukku Media office at Raja Badar Street in T. Nagar, Chennai.
Justice K. Kumaresh Babu disposed of the case filed by T. Vignesh, an employee, after recording the contents of a status report filed, on behalf of Greater Chennai Commissioner of Police Sandeep Rai Rathore, by T. Nagar Deputy Commissioner of Police Ankit Jain.
The petitioner’s counsel P. Vijendran had contended that Savukku Media had employed 18 persons but none of them were able to access the office because of constant surveillance by the police. He also relied upon CCTV footage to substantiate his claim.
