The Allahabad High Court recently took decisive action by issuing criminal contempt notices to ten advocates accused of assaulting litigants within the premises of the Prayagraj district court. Moreover, the Court has prohibited their entry into the district court premises. Justices Ashwani Kumar Mishra and Mohd Azhar Husain Idrisi, presiding over the case, emphasized the severity of the incident.
They expressed concern over the obstruction of court proceedings, leading to litigants being subjected to violence within the courtroom, forcing the presiding officer to seek refuge for safety. The Court firmly denounced such aggressive behavior, stating it could undermine the judicial system and emphasized its obligation to intervene in such matters.
