Senior Congress leader Motilal Vora today approached a Delhi court seeking to restrain BJP leader Subramanian Swamy from sharing information about the National Herald case on social media.

Swamy has filed the case against Vora, Rahul Gandhi, his mother Sonia Gandhi and others.

In an application moved before Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Samar Vishal, Vora said he has "time and again noticed that the complainant (Swamy) has been putting up various posts on social media regarding the daily proceedings of the instant case for the purpose of causing defamation of the accused and vilification of the court process.

He submitted, The complainant has been indulging in loud and persistent publicity amounting to an interference with the administration of justice."
