Allahabad High Court fined Devendra Kumar Dixit Rs 2,000 for making false bribery allegations against judges. The Court found him guilty of criminal contempt but gave leniency due to his age and first-time offense.
The Madhya Pradesh High Court upheld the dismissal of an Additional District Judge accused of corruption, stating that the position “comes with great responsibility, and he was obligated to conduct himself in a manner befitting his role.” The Administrative Committee (Higher Judicial Services) recommended his removal from service and a full court of HC endorsed it, following which the State Law and Legislative Department issued the removal order on September 2, 2014.
