13 Delhi High Court convicted
Senior

Advocates

The Delhi High Court convicted senior advocates R.
K. Anand and I. U. Khan in the BMW expose case for obstructing administration of
justice. “They are senior advocates and they did not tender either conditional
or unconditional apology for their conduct in the BMW case,” a Division Bench of
Justices Manmohan Sarin and Madan B. Lokur said, in their 112-page verdict in
the contempt case relating to the expose.


Recommending that they be stripped of their
designation of senior advocate, the Court asked them not to appear in the Delhi
High Court and its subordinate Courts for the next four months as punishment.


The Bench also imposed a fine of Rs.2,000 on each
of them and rapped them for their ‘irresponsible’ behaviour, saying “we are not
dealing with young lawyers. Both are seasoned lawyers and such conduct was not
expected of them.
