Former Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC) CEO Partho Dasgupta on Wednesday sent to judicial custody for 14 days by Esplanade court in the TRP scam case. He was arrested from Pune on December 24.
Mumbai Police had earlier arrested Republic TV CEO Vikas Khanchand in the alleged TRP mpulation case. He was later granted bail.
