Thereafter, the applicant&#8217;s advocate raised his voice in open Court questioning the Court&#8217;s authority in a highly objectionable tone and body language and alleged pressure of the Government. Thus, the Court initiated contempt proceeding against him.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The applicant&#8217;s advocate stated &#8220;<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Why are you calling for a counter affidavit in this case? You do not have the courage to seek explanation from the concerned Investigating Officer who, till date, has not recorded the statement of the injured. You have no authority to pass any order against the Investigating Officer. It appears that you are working under the pressure of the Government.<\/span>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court stated that the words used by the applicant&#8217;s advocate, his tone, body language and the manner in which the statements were made were highly objectionable, scandalous and derogatory, and tended to lower the authority and dignity of the Court in the eyes of those present in Court.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court further stated that such conduct clearly indicated an intention to interfere with and obstruct the due course of judicial proceedings, which fell within the ambit of &#8216;criminal contempt&#8217; as defined under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001572929\" target=\"_blank\">2(c)<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002782345\" target=\"_blank\">Contempt of Courts Act, 1971<\/a>. The Court highlighted that the said scandalous remarks challenged the authority of the Court and disrupted the proceedings, due to which the Court proceedings remained stalled for about ten minutes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court observed that by using scandalous and intemperate language and by shouting in open Court in a loud and aggressive manner, applicant&#8217;s advocate committed acts which tend to interfere with the administration of justice. Thus, the Court opined that the matter required consideration for initiation of contempt proceedings against him. However, the Court deemed appropriate to place the issue before the Chief Justice for taking suitable action, in accordance with law.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Kunal v.
