Noida Police Question Ajeet Bharti Over Posts on Attempted Attack on CJI Gavai

An activist has asked the Attorney General for permission to file criminal contempt against Bharti and preacher Aniruddhacharya.

Ajeet Bharti is known to court controversies, as is Aniruddhacharya.

Overview

  • Officers in Noida questioned Bharti for hours on Tuesday over his recent social media posts and released him without arrest, with further inquiry underway.
  • In a video after Monday’s courtroom incident, he disparaged Chief Justice BR Gavai and suggested similar attacks could occur on the streets if judges make “anti-Hindu” remarks, drawing calls for action.
  • Activist Suraj Kumar Bauddh requested the Attorney General’s consent to initiate criminal contempt proceedings against Bharti and preacher Aniruddhacharya over alleged incitement.
  • The plea cites a September 21 clip of Aniruddhacharya issuing threats tied to remarks in a Vishnu idol case, along with Bharti’s recent posts that went viral.
  • The attempted shoe-hurling at the Supreme Court on Monday led the Bar Council of India to suspend 71-year-old lawyer Rakesh Kishore’s licence after the CJI declined to press charges.
