The police in Uttar Pradesh have listed a staggering 18 charges against a journalist and two others who flagged an alleged land grab case. The case was filed on a complaint by the brother of Champat Rai, a Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader and secretary of the Ram Temple Trust, who is facing questions over controversial land deals in Ayodhya. The Bijnor police chief has already given Champat Rai and his brothers a "clean chit" based on what he calls a prime facie inquiry into the land allegations. Investigations continue, he says.
