Locking Up Magistrate : Bar Association Tenders Apology

Web Desk‌Updated: Tuesday Dec 10, 2019

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM :  The fiery advocates have finally lost steam, going by the unconditional apology tendered by  Bar Association over the 27-Nov incident, where a group of lawyers locked up a woman magistrate inside the courtroom in Vanchiyoor, for refusing bail to a KSRTC driver in an accident case.

 

After the first-of-its-kind outrage, the lawyers proceeded to boycott the concerned court and stage demonstrations. .


The incident attracted wide criticism and  the Kerala High Court swung into action, taking up case suo motu

 

While the apology that came in late evening Monday is a step towards reconcilement, the lady judge is yet to clarify her response to the bow.

Meanwhile the case on the issue is still Live at the High Court.
