Advocate Senior Advocate Rajiv Nayar appeared for Bloomberg and told the High Court that the order passed by the trial court was without any reason or prima facie finding.
“This is the most amazing order. No prima facie case made, balance of convenience, irreparable loss or hardship,” he said.
Nayar said that Bloomberg is a reputed channel and a media company and the trial court judge did not even hear the news platform before publishing the order.
Meanwhile, advocate Vijay Aggarwal appeared for Zee and contended that that there was nothing on record to show that the allegations made by Bloomberg were true.
“They don’t have a case on facts. If there is any in public record, dismiss my suit right now… Just because they are a company of international repute does not mean they can defame an Indian company,” he argued.
