Ahmedabad: Police have registered an FIR against four journalists of a Gujarati newspaper for allegedly entering a police station in Rajkot to carry out a 'sting operation' and obstructing police personnel from conducting their duties, an official said.
The four journalists allegedly entered the prohibited area without due permission, the official from Rajkot taluka police station said.
On December 2, a news report along with photographs was published in the newspaper, saying three accused arrested in the hospital fire tragedy were given VIP treatment and kept in a police staff room, instead of the lockup, he said.
The journalists also shot some videos of the police station and circulated them on various social media platforms, he said.
