We do not believe that a judge of the High Court would have spoken to a media house about their phones being tapped. So, this makes the article reported contemptuous," the state government submitted.The state government also said that it has issued a defamation notice to the newspaper and is also taking steps to initiate further legal action against it."It was urged that the High Court make the media house a party as they need to come and answer as to where they got the information from and how they have written the article as if a judge has spoken to them," it submitted.The High Court was hearing a plea, seeking an inquiry into allegations that the government had tried to tap the phones of some Andhra Pradesh High Court judges for political motives.( With inputs from ANI )
