2017 (3) TMI 1341 - DELHI HIGH COURTJurisdiction of the High Court - Defamatory newspaper article - Permanent injunction restraining the defendants from publishing and reporting any Article/news of defamation - Held that:- this suit does not deserve to be entertained and deserves to be thrown out at the threshold to save the defendants, who do not appear to be persons with much monetary means, from travelling to Delhi, engaging an Advocate, appearing and contesting this suit at Delhi. This Court would not have the territorial jurisdiction to entertain the suit as no part of the cause of action has accrued within the jurisdiction of this Court as the defendants are not stated to be selling their newspaper at Delhi and their website is not interactive and the article concerned is in Bengali language with which very few Delhiites would be conversant with and the plaintiff has not pleaded that any one at Delhi understood the said article but I refrain from returning a final finding on the said aspect being of the view that the suit of the plaintiff is otherwise not maintainable.
