SC to hear 11-yr-old contempt case against Prashant Bhushan on Aug 17

New Delhi, Aug 10 (UNI) The Supreme Court on Tuesday decided to hold a hearing in a contempt of court case against activist-lawyer Prashant Bhushan initiated in 2009.
A bench comprising Justices Arun Mishra, BR Gavai and Krishna Murari asserted that the Apex Court will hear the matter on August 17.
Mr Bhushan requested to list the case after the hearing resumed in the courtroom again, but it was turned down.
Mr Bhushan's father and former law minister Shanti Bhushan sought permission from the court to speak, but Justice Mishra said he would give him an opportunity to speak during the hearing on August 17.
The top court had issued contempt notices to Bhushan and Tarun Tejpal of Tehelka for allegedly casting aspersions on some sitting and former judges over corruption in an interview to the news magazine. Tejpal was the editor of the magazine at that time.
