Arnab brokered ministerial berths with a lobbyist.

Arnab recorded but then did not show Cash for Votes Scam

Arnab asked a fixer what kind of story would she want written.

Arnab faked a live TV debate.

Arnab was implicated in Me Too.

Yes. Arnab destroyed Indian Journalism.

Shocking attack on Arnab Goswami and his wife.

Stay safe, Arnab. I stand with you.

Arnab has now been grilled for nine hours inside the Mumbai police station.

Had heard of the Spanish Inquisition. This is the Italian Inquisition. And it is just starting.

Unreal. Arnab's interrogation is still on. Are they torturing him to disclose a secret Assamese recipe? Is there a secret tunnel underneath the police station running a hyperloop all the way to 10 Janpath?

So it turns out the police officer who interrogated Arnab was CoVID positive.

Was he tested and found to be CoVID positive before or after the interrogation?

Shocking:

1. Arnab requested interrogation through video conferencing citing lockdown and danger of CoVID spread. The request was denied by Mumbai police.

2. Republic CFO was interrogated in the same police station that already had confirmed CoVID positive cases.

In the middle of a raging epidemic, the Mumbai Police order Arnab Goswami to appear before them a second time to interrogate him under the charges of the draconian Section 295A for 'Offending Religious Sensibilities'.

Whose religious sensibilities did he offend? Name her.

Arnab batting right now.

On the TRP scam and Republic.

My views:

The curious incident, said Sherlock Holmes, was not that the dog was not barking but, rather, that it was BARCing up the wrong tree.

Speechless. Mumbai police have charged @pradip103 under non bailable offences, one of them being "Using criminal force to deter public servant from discharging his duty". His arrest is imminent.

Stay safe, Pradeep. We stand with you.

Relentless. Arnab has just received a second notice regarding a Breach of Privilege motion initiated against him for using “derogatory language” against Uddhav Thackeray

Mr Thackeray heads a party whose members called a women journalist "call-girl" and an actress "Harāmkhor".

What is being done to Arnab is nothing but a vicious assault on freedom of expression, free speech, and press freedom. And SHAME on @IndEditorsGuild for remaining silent. #Arnab10MinuteNotice

Absolutely terrible news. @pradip103 has just been arrested by the Mumbai police.

This was always going to be a battle of attrition - who would blink first, Arnab or the Mumbai police commissioner.

And today, Param Bir Singh is blinking like a strobe light in a disco. #RepublicExposesParamBir

The Mumbai Police has issued Republic a notice under Section 91 of the CrPC and asked them to furnish within hours details of every transaction, electricity and water bills, studio expenses, even hand sanitiser purchases, since its inception in 2017.

Unbelievable harassment.

What the hell is going on? Have the Mumbai Police totally lost it?

FIR filed against the ENTIRE @republic editorial team.

This is unprecedented and unacceptable. Forget Centre, the Courts must now step in. IMMEDIATELY. #RepublicWitchhunt

Shocked by the news of Arnab's arrest. Absolutely despicable.

Arnab, we ALL stand with you.
#ArnabGoswami

"They beat up my son," says Arnab as he is whisked away by the Mumbai Police.

Don't know what to say. Shocked and speechless.

UNREAL. They will not rest till they have exhausted each and every section of the Indian Penal Code.

Incredible. Mumbai Police have now arrested one of their own, the Police Officer who wrote the closure report in the case Arnab has been arrested and charged in. On April 26, 2019, he had submitted before a local court that "there was no evidence".
