Former Supreme Court judge A K Ganguly today said he was being "hounded like a criminal" by the media, while he was denied a copy of the affidavit of the girl who had accused him of harassing her.

"Media is hounding me like a criminal," Justice Ganguly said.

"Why have I been denied a copy of the affidavit? When I appeared before the the three-judge Supreme Court panel, I was told it was confidential," he told a news channel.

He said that in normal course the respondent should get a copy of the petition because his reputation was at stake.
 

He said that he had never imagined that such a thing could befall him.

To a question, he said that he has left it to the people to form their own opinion on the matter.
