CC Case Or Not.

The Contempt of Courts Act, 1971

Hindustan Times News Paper. (HT)

Page No. 1 The Front Pape Or The Main page of the news paper.

Binayak Sen gets Bail, SC says not a case of sedtition as per section 124A of the IPC, 1860.

Query : He got the AB & the appeal is still pending in the (chhattisgarh) HC. so the media published that the abovementioned person gets AB as the case is over so it is not a contempt case though the appeal is still pending in a particular state HC. as the publication is not related to the appeal pending in the HC or the main case which is still pending so it is not a contempt right ?

So can we say that any interim order can be published in the media or any news paper becasue as per the above matter stated it is a separate order & the interim order is a separate order becuase it is only related to interim application made & not with the main case right ? so if published it can't be a ocntempt of court right or wrong ?

Because as per the defination give under section 2 of the The Contempt of Courts Act, 1971 any thing published during the proceedings which on stay or still going on in any court in india if published is a contempt of court.

So pls guide me on the above matter or opinion are welcomed with due respect.

Thanks.
