Hello
Padma Lakshmi, who graduated from Ernakulam Law College, became the first transgender lawyer of Kerala when she enrolled as an advocate with the Bar council on Monday.
Public prosecutor booked for pressurising sexual assault survivor to withdraw case
Saiby allegedly collected lakhs of rupees from his clients claiming that they were kickbacks to certain higher judicial officers.
Justice Siyad Rahman took the action noting that granting the bail to the accused without hearing the victim’s version was a gross lapse.
A team led by the Kochi Police Commissioner is conducting a preliminary investigation into the charges based on the direction of the Director General of Police after the High Court Registrar shot off a letter calling for a probe against advocate Saiby Jose Kidangoor.
The Vigilance report says that the advocate had received bribes in the name of three judges.
It is alleged that Jose took the money from a client, who works in the film industry, purportedly to pay Justice P V Kunjikrishnan to get anticipatory bail.
The complainant is a sub-inspector with the Valiyathura Police Station.
The deceased is 26-year-old Aishwarya Unnithan.
The primary role of a lawyer is to secure justice for his client. So whether you are a lawyer drafting an agreement for your client, whether you are giving a legal opinion to your client or whether you are appearing before a court of law and arguing on behalf of your client the objective remains the same: to secure justice for your client.
