Chief Justice Aravind Kumar recalled that he had similarly pulled up an advocate for eating a samosa during an online proceeding of the Gujarat High Court a few days back.
The Chief Justice of the Gujarat High Court on Tuesday directed a police officer to distribute 100 cans of a cold drink to the bar association or face disciplinary action, after he spotted the latter sipping the beverage during a virtual hearing.
Chief Justice Aravind Kumar reprimanded inspector AM Rathod after he spotted him drinking something that looked like a cold drink during an online hearing of a case.
The Chief Justice recalled that he had similarly pulled up an advocate for eating a samosa during an online proceeding of the court a few days ago.
"We said that we have no objections to you eating a samosa. But the only ground is, you cannot eat it in front of us, because others are also tempted. Either he should give it to everybody or he should not eat it," the Chief Justice said.
