Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court has pulled up a judicial officer over her conduct in an alleged road rage incident, observing that CCTV footage prima facie showed behaviour “wholly unbecoming” of a member of the judiciary.
According to the court, the complainant, a judicial officer, was travelling in her private car along with her husband.
However, at the instance of the judicial officer, a 70-year-old man, the third accused, was also taken into custody.
“It is surprising as to how, in the offences so laid against these petitioners, they were taken into custody merely because the complainant was a judicial officer.
It would not mean that the citizens are treated in the manner at the dictate of the said judicial officer,” the order said.
