Delhi High Court Proceedings Disrupted by Pornographic Content During Virtual Hearing

Kathmandu. Judicial proceedings were disrupted on Wednesday when pornographic content was displayed during a virtual hearing (video conferencing) at the Delhi High Court. Sensationalism ensued when a participant played obscene visuals and disturbing music while the hearing was underway in the Chief Justice's bench.

According to 'Bar & Bench', the hearing was taking place in the bench of Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyay and Justice Tejas Karia. During the proceedings, a person connected to the video conference played objectionable material, forcing an interruption of the hearing.

Although the hearing resumed after some time, it was again adjourned for a second time after obscene content was displayed again.

Expressing objection to this incident, Chief Justice Devendra Kumar Upadhyay has directed the Registrar General to investigate the incident and initiate appropriate legal action.

Furthermore, the Chief Justice warned that strict action would be taken against anyone recording or broadcasting this incident, emphasizing that recording court proceedings is strictly prohibited. The court has pledged to bring those who violate the sanctity of virtual hearings within the legal framework.
