Supreme Court Advises Legal Remedies Before Seeking Takedown of Court Video Clips
The Supreme Court of India reiterated its July 24 order prohibiting the unauthorised extraction, dissemination, and monetisation of audio-video recordings of judicial proceedings on digital platforms without prior permission. A three-judge bench led by Chief Justice Surya Kant heard a petition by a lawyer alleging violation of this order through online posting of his court appearance clips. The court advised the petitioner to first seek takedown through social media intermediaries and legal remedies before approaching the judiciary, warning that altered or false clips could amount to contempt or criminal conduct.
