Bhushan Accused Former Chief Justices of Big Charges in 2009

During the hearing of the case, Justice Mishra said that the big question has come in the case that when a judge is accused of corruption, can he go to the public domain and what is his procedure. In 2009, Bhushan called half of the 16 former Chief Justices corrupt. The court is hearing this case only.

Bhushan's Lawyer Argued in Court

During this, Rajiv Dhawan argued that in this case, we have also put the question before the court. What is the effect of free speech in the jurisprudence in the matter of the concept of self-cognition? That is, the court itself has broadened freedom of expression from time to time, its effect on the Concept of Court Act needs to be considered and it should be heard by the Constitutional Bench. Rajiv Dhawan said that notice should be given to the Attorney General in the case.

Law Tops: Sibal

Justice Mishra then said that it should be left for another bench as well as amicus curiae in the case. Counsel Kapil Sibal, appearing for Tarun Tejpal, said that the matter of broad principle is how supreme the court is. The law is uppermost. We will keep coming and going but the institute is at the top and will remain. He needs to be protected. The law applies equally to everyone. The matter should be referred to as a constitutional bench.

The Supreme Court will hear the case further. During this time, the Supreme Court has framed the question that if someone accuses a judge, under what circumstances can he be made public?
