New Delhi: Observing that the case seemed to be driven by "sheer political vendetta", the Supreme Court on Friday stayed a Karnataka High Court order that restricted the broadcast of Kannada news channel Power TV.A bench comprising Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra observed that the case against the news channel prima facie aimed to stop the channel from airing allegations of sex scandals involving political figures in the state. While issuing notice to the Centre and others on the plea filed by M/s Power Smart Media Pvt Ltd, the bench also stayed the order of the high court till Monday and put it for hearing next day. The channel allegedly broadcast news related to recent sex scandal allegations involving JD leaders Prajwal Revanna and others. The channel assailed a division bench order of the Karnataka High Court.
