Chennai city police have a new idea to address the increasing number of crime reports in the media: keeping a tab on crime reporters. According to an internal circular issued by the city police, four senior officials have been given the task of “handling” 26 print reporters from 11 media houses in the city.
The circular, a copy of which was accessed , has upset the Chennai Union of Journalists (CUJ), which sent a petition to the Press Council of India (PCI) seeking action against city police commissioner S George. The union alleged that “press in charge officers” had been appointed despite the city police already having an in-house PR department.
