An injunction was sought by the Disability Services Commission on Saturday morning and granted by a WA Supreme Court judge.

Nine News Perth is also subject to an injunction, which was obtained in May, issued by the Supreme Court at the last minute ahead of a broadcast on the 6pm news bulletin.

The wide-ranging injunction prevents WAtoday reporting details of an inmate who is the subject of serious allegations.
