Zee rebuts Dhoni's allegations, says moved SC with evidences

Zee TV today rebutted the allegations in the defamation civil suit filed by India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni in the Madras High Court, where it has been accused of telecasting "malicious" news about the cricketer.
The Madras High Court today restrained Zee News and News Nation channels from telecasting any news linking Dhoni with the Indian Premier League (IPL) betting and fixing scam.
The interim order, effective for two weeks, was passed by Justice S Tamilvanan on a defamation suit filed by Dhoni claiming Rs 100 crore damages from the Zee Media Corporation for allegedly telecasting "malicious" news that he was involved in betting, spot and match-fixing of IPL matches.

The news channel, however, maintained that it has not telecast or shown any footage or dialogue to malign the image of Dhoni.
The channel clarified that it had telecast the story that was based on Vindu Dara Singh and IPS officer Sampat Kumar's statements during the sting operation which was telecast on February 24 and 28, 2014 respectively by Zee Media Corporation.
