The Supreme Court Friday refused to grant relief to a journalist convicted in 2015 for writing defamatory articles against a lawyer. Notably, the journalist was challenging a Karnataka High Court order sentencing him to one-month imprisonment. The SC said the one-month imprisonment was a liberal sentence against him. The court also made remarks against the language used by the journalist in his articles.
