The confrontation began within the judge’s chamber, prompting lawyers to gather outside in protest after being dispersed by security personnel. The video showed police pushing back against the lawyers. In one video, police personnel could be seen brandishing batons and one of them lifting a wooden chair.
In response, the Ghaziabad Bar Association has announced an emergency meeting, expressing concern over the treatment of lawyers by the police. Though no major injuries have been officially confirmed, the incident has raised questions about the balance between court security and lawyers’ rights within the judicial environment.
