Lawyer Who Targeted Ex-CJI Gavai Assaulted Inside Delhi Court Complex

The bar says action awaits a formal complaint.

Overview

  • A viral video from Karkardooma shows several men swinging slippers at 71-year-old advocate Rakesh Kishore before others intervened.
  • Kishore said the assailants told him they were punishing him for the October shoe incident and invoked caste and ‘Sanatan’ slogans, a claim not independently verified.
  • The attackers have not been identified, and police had issued no official statement at the time of publication.
  • Shahdara Bar officials described a scuffle inside the court premises and said the body will act only if a formal complaint is received.
  • Kishore reported no serious injuries and said he will not lodge a complaint; he was earlier suspended by the Bar Council and lost SCBA membership following the Supreme Court episode in October.
