Beatings of Lawyers


A score of self-respecting vulnerable and medium category lawyers have left this district court in Delhi namely Patiala House Or if at all they remain here they are a little too withdrawn and conspicious by their absence because of public beatings and humilations meted out to them for mysterious reasons effectuated by bullies in garb of lawyers.In this court you have small time hirelings and also goons who follow the dictates of their mentors and also do all sorts of petty crimes for a price. The situation here is very bad. It seems to be correctly said if you happen to hire a lawyer in one of the lower courts of Delhi ensure your lawyer is a goon too. It is interesting to note that the goons have always been in good books of Bar office bearers

However it is Interesting to note that his I card bears genuine signatures of the Bar president and secretary. It is alleged that i- cards of Bar Council and Bar Associations are issued for a price.and keeping view of the fact ,long established procedure for issuing I cards in NDBA has been done away with ,a few years back .Now blank I cards are handed over to individuals merely on the asking.

It may not be out of place to mention that an alarmingly large number of accused are acquited here every year because of defective investigations.
