Complaint Moved Before Kerala High Court Seeking Contempt Action Against Sessions Judge Over Alleged Remarks

The lawyer representing the survivor in the 2017 Kerala actress assault case has submitted a complaint before the Kerala High Court seeking contempt action against the Ernakulam Principal Sessions Court judge for allegedly making derogatory remarks in open court.

The complaint stated that the remarks were made during hearings in defamation cases connected to the assault case and were directed at both the counsel and the survivor.

It further claimed that the comments had no factual basis and seriously affected professional credibility and the dignity of the legal process.

The High Court has been urged to initiate appropriate action.
