Today, On 16th October, India’s Attorney General R. Venkataramani has approved criminal contempt proceedings against Advocate Rakesh Kishore, who tried to throw a shoe at Chief Justice of India B.R. Gavai in the Supreme Court last week.
AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi criticized the muted response to the Supreme Court shoe-hurling incident, calling it “an insult to the Supreme Court” and highlighting rising crimes against Dalits. He questioned how a 70-year-old man could be radicalised, raising concerns over social and legal accountability.
The Punjab and Haryana High Court pulled up an Assistant District Attorney for hiding her relationship with the accused while appearing as State counsel in a sexual harassment case against her husband. The Court called out the conduct of both husband and wife as an attempt to misuse the judicial process.
