11 Crl.P. No. 225 of 2023 required material, initiating judicial proceedings against the petitioner is an abuse of the process of the Court. The manner in which the petitioner was proceeded against, amounts to inciting fear not only amongst the entire administration of the broadcaster, but will also have an impact upon rest of the print and electronic media, which will certainly obstruct their constitutional right. On the basis of the material available on the record, no case was made out against the petitioner. The fora below have ignored these constitutional, legal, and factual aspects of the case and have failed to exercise their mandatory inherent powers in favour of the petitioner, which is an illegality. Thus, in view of the above, the petition is converted into an appeal and is allowed. The impugned judgment of the High Court and that of the Trial Court are set aside. The proceedings initiated against the petitioner, pursuant to the above referred FIR are quashed to his extent. He is acquitted from the case.
