Reporters Without Orders Reporters Without Orders Ep 360: Police ‘action’ in Sambhal, rape case against Shyam Sunder Bhartia
This week, host Basant Kumar is joined by Newslaundry’s Prateek Goyal and Avdhesh Kumar.
Prateek talks about two big stories he reported on last week. The first is allegations of rape against prominent industrialist Shyam Sunder Bhartia. He explains why there was a delay in the police registering an FIR, and how a court had to get involved. The second, part of the Hindu Rashtra Project, details how Hindutva groups in Madhya Pradesh target interfaith couples – even if they’re protected by the court.
Avdhesh talks about his follow-up story from Sambhal, where communal violence broke out last year. While the police have made several arrests, he says this doesn’t quite add up.
Tune in.
