Of course, they might have grounds to sue the leaker, but the fact that the police are interceding on the side of the broadcaster is what I find disturbing.

the police are involved because they have been asked to be involved. Do you think police only act on their own all the time? They provide a service and this one involves people violating law

Yes, laws. Is leaking an episode of a TV show a crime in Inida? Seems crazy.
The ideal of the justice system is to, well, maintain justice. Seems in practice they are, as you said, a service, a private goon squad for the rich.
