Advocates’ body demands in-house probe into ‘threat’ posed to Karnataka HC judge

The Advocates’ Association, Bengaluru (AAB) on Tuesday demanded an in-house investigation into the issue of ‘threat’ posed to Justice H.P. Sandesh, a judge of the High Court, for questioning the functioning of the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB).

Pointing out that the remarks made by Justice Sandesh on July 4 gives an indication that another judge of the High Court tried to “influence” him in the matter of ACB, the association said that such an interference by another judge is unacceptable in the functioning of the judicial system.
