During a virtual hearing before the Delhi High Court Chief Justice's bench, proceedings were disrupted multiple times by an unidentified participant who played pornographic content and an automated voice claiming, "You've been hacked." The disruptions forced repeated shutdowns of the video conferencing system. The High Court administration has filed a formal complaint with Delhi Police's Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Operations unit, prompting a preliminary investigation into the security breach and calls for stricter virtual hearing protocols.
