The Supreme Court has requested a response from bar leader Rajiv Khosla regarding a petition by former Delhi district court judge Sujata Kohli, challenging the Delhi High Court’s decision to exonerate Khosla in a contempt case. Khosla’s discharge was based on insufficient evidence to prove guilt. The case will be reviewed in three weeks.
The Delhi High Court acquitted former DHCBA President Rajiv Khosla on Wednesday (February 28) in a contempt case filed by ex-District Judge Sujata Kohli due to insufficient evidence. The court emphasized the need to maintain decorum and safety, suggesting video conferencing and enforcing Section 327 Cr.P.C. The verdict was directed to all District Courts of Delhi for proper courtroom conduct and security measures.
