Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the findings of the Bar Council of India regarding the professional misconduct of the appellant under Sections 35, 36, and 36-B of the Advocates Act, 1961. The Court found that the appellant, an advocate, was involved in a fraudulent scheme defrauding a complainant seeking a loan by demanding legal expenses under false pretenses. The Court affirmed the removal of the appellant's name from the Roll of the State Bar Council as a valid punishment for his misconduct.
