Delhi High Court convicted a lawyer of criminal contempt for disruptive behavior in court.
Delhi High Court found a lawyer guilty of criminal contempt for appearing drunk in court, shouting, and using abusive language. The court considered his actions unpardonable and an interference in the administration of justice. Although the court initially inclined to sentence the lawyer, it considered his 5+ months imprisonment following an FIR as sufficient for the present contempt.
