The Supreme Court, in Suo Motu Contempt Petition (Criminal) No.1 of 2019, addressed allegations of contempt against members of the Bench based on complaints from the Indian Bar Association and the Bombay Incorporated Law Society. The Court issued notices to the alleged contemnors, including Shri Vijay Kurle and Shri Rashid Khan Pathan, for making scandalous allegations against the judges. The Court clarified that the charges against the alleged contemnors were limited to the allegations made in the complaints regarding the judges, and directed the Registry to supply necessary documents to the parties involved.
