Man calls CJI Surya Kant’s brother over court order, his ‘never ever dare’ response

Chief justice of India Surya Kant on Wednesday came down heavily on a petitioner after reportedly learning that his brother had allegedly been contacted over a court order passed in the case.Hearing the matter, the CJI questioned why contempt proceedings should not be initiated against the petitioner’s father, who is said to have made the call. According to a report in Live Law, addressing the petitioner’s counsel, the CJI expressed sharp disapproval, saying, “Why should there not be contempt proceeding against your client? He dares to call my brother on phone and tells how CJI has passed this order? He will dictate me?” the CJI added.
