Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's interim order under the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971, restraining the respondents from engaging in scandalous activities pending contempt proceedings. The Court noted that the language used by the appellant in letters could be deemed contemptuous, referencing the precedent set in C. Ravichandran Iyer v. Justice A.M. Bhattacharjee. The appellant later expressed regret and offered an unconditional apology, which the Court acknowledged but did not alter the High Court's order.
