NEW DELHI: Giving additional time to former BARC CEO Partho Dasgupta to withdraw his bail application from the Supreme Court, the Bombay high court has adjourned the hearing on his bail plea to 15 February. Police claim Dasgupta is the so-called “mastermind” of the TRP manipulation racket which has thrown the news broadcast industry into tumult.
Special public prosecutor Shishir Hirey opposed Dasgupta s appeal for interim bail, stating that he has also filed a bail plea in the Supreme Court and this move is nothing but “forum shopping.
