Court restrains political parties from ‘politicising/publicising’ the issue In suo motu proceedings, the Madras High Court on Monday decided to monitor the investigation into a sexual harassment complaint against a former Special Director-General of Police (DGP) and restrained political parties from “politicising/publicising” the issue. A woman Superintendent of Police had accused the top officer of sexually harassing her. The court ordered that the parties must not issue any statement to the media touching upon the merits of the issue and warned that violation of the court order might lead to contempt proceedings.
