Man demanding death penalty for High Court judge receives contempt of court notice by Delhi High Court.

Appeals filed against single-judge’s dismissal of petitions

A series of appeals have been filed against a single-judge’s dismissal of petitions by a petitioner named Sharma. In his appeals, Sharma has argued that criminal and defamation proceedings should be initiated against the single-judge for violating his fundamental rights.

Violation of fundamental rights

Sharma strongly contends that the judge’s judgment was not only “baseless” but also defamatory. He believes that the judge should be charged with criminal defamation as a result.

Request for criminal charges

In his plea, Sharma has called for the single-judge to be criminally charged under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. These sections include IPC 124A, 166A(b), 167, 192, 193, 217, 405, 409, 499, 500, and Section 16 of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971.

Furthermore, Sharma has urged the court to consider imposing the death penalty on the judge. He argues that such a severe punishment is necessary to prevent other judges from disregarding the fundamental rights enshrined in the Constitution of India and potentially undermining the judicial system.

Summary:

• A petitioner named Sharma has filed appeals against the dismissal of his petitions by a single-judge.
