The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday told the Calcutta High Court that it has examined TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee and his wife Rujira and has found more incriminating material in the School Jobs for Cash scam.
Among other directions, the Court has ordered the media not to put out unverified information, to refrain from publishing photos linking persons to crimes before a chargesheet is filed and to not mask opinions as news.
This is the first time that Rujira Banerjee has been summoned by the Enforcement Directorate in connection with the school jobs scam. Earlier, she had been questioned by the ED in the coal pilferage case.
The mainstream media operating in traditional and digital spheres, has portrayed the petitioner and her husband as though they are proven guilty persons, the petition highlights.
