New Delhi, Aug 28 (IANS) The Supreme Court Tuesday pulled up the government for not stating the mechanism it had put in place to guard against leakage of telephone intercepts of people under surveillance.

“What is the mechanism to arrest the leakage,” the court asked the government.

The court was hearing a petition by Tata group chief Ratan Tata contending that the publication of the transcripts of former corporate lobbyist Niira Radia’s tapped telephonic conversation by media violated his right to privacy.
