Mumbai Police has filed a supplementary chargesheet against Republic TV CEO CEO Vikas Khanchandani, former BARC CEO Partho Dasgupta and former BARC Romil Ramgarhia in connection with the TRP manipulation case. The supplementary chargesheet, filed in a Mumbai Magistrate Court, reportedly has 3600 pages.

While Dasgupta and Ramgarhia are currently in jail after their arrest in the case, Khanchandani is out on bail.

Khanchandani was arrested on December 13 and released on bail on December 16. Ramgarhia was arrested on December 17 and Dasgupta was arrested on December 24.

 

The TRP scam came to light in October when BARC filed a complaint through Hansa Research Group, alleging that some channels were manipulating TRP numbers.
