Delhi High Court says evidence required before accusing judges
The Delhi High Court just made it clear: if you're going to question a judge's integrity, you need real evidence.
Justices Navin Chawla and Ravinder Dudeja pointed out that throwing around baseless claims hurts the whole justice system.
This came up while the court was dealing with contempt charges against a YouTuber and two lawyers over some pretty serious allegations.
YouTuber found guilty of criminal contempt
Back in 2025, videos surfaced online accusing judicial officers of bias. The two lawyers involved told the court they didn't actually agree to be part of those videos.
Their apologies were accepted and charges dropped. But the YouTuber stood by his comments, saying he was pushing for public advocacy and reform.
The court disagreed, finding him guilty of criminal contempt for trying to scandalize the judiciary.
His sentencing is set for May 12.
