The Gujarat High Court initiated suo motu contempt proceedings against senior advocate Bhaskar Tanna after he attended a virtual court hearing while drinking from a beer mug and talking on the phone. The court described his conduct as disrespectful and inappropriate during the proceedings. Following the incident, Tanna issued a public apology expressing regret for his actions. Separately, the Gujarat High Court also fined a man $1,160 for appearing on a virtual hearing while seated on a toilet and reportedly relieving himself during a 74-minute session. In Delhi, a court punished four accused individuals in a criminal trespass case by ordering them to stand in court with their hands raised for the entire day after they failed to submit bail bonds on time, an action deemed contempt of court.
