Large sections of the television media have been like a KHAP panchayat-Teesta Setalvad

We were extremely disturbed and upset by the Gujarat HC Order dated 12.2.2015 and are of course challenging it. After a detailednreading of the 63 page Order it is painfully clear that the Court has disregarded over 1500 pages of Documentary Evidence supplied by us since June 2014 to response to every single one of the allegations malafidely put out by the Prosecution that is the Crime Branch of the Gujarat Police. A Brief Note on this we are also putting here deeply overwhelmed by the support.
We ask for fair hearing., not privilege. While the print media has been balanced, it is shocking that large sections of the television media have been like a KHAP panchayat not even attempting to go into both sides.
We are and have always been prepared for a transparent and fair investigation. But can the Crime Branch today within Gujarat —against whom we as CJP and Teesta individually — have collected documented evidence and also launched prosecutions that are pending? Can such an Investigation ever be impartial or not vindictive?
Let there be any independent Investigation by any agency outside Gujarat supervised by the Supreme Court take place. We will answer each and every charge, piece by piece, with documentary evidence. We have done no wrong. We have functioned legitimately. But ina truly free and fair country, the facts need to be examined in detail and dispassionately.
