Indian Courts Address Disruptions and Contempt with Bail and Apology Acceptance
Two recent court cases in India highlight judicial responses to disruptions and contempt. A Delhi court granted bail to two law students accused of disrupting Supreme Court proceedings and assaulting a public servant, noting the offences were not severe enough for pretrial detention. Separately, the Himachal Pradesh High Court dropped a contempt case against an advocate and former MP after accepting their unconditional apology for derogatory remarks made in a Facebook live video, warning against future attempts to undermine the judiciary via social media.
