NEW DELHI, May 18 -- The Delhi High Court on Sunday passed an order attaching a Rohini court district judge with the Delhi Judicial Academy, two days after a video surfaced purportedly showing the judge having a verbal scuffle with a lawyer inside his courtroom. Meanwhile, the Judicial Service Association of Delhi issued a condemnation letter, calling the alleged recording of the court proceedings as an illegal and a deliberate act meant to "scandalise the courts" and "browbeat judicial officers". Requesting the Delhi High Court to direct deletion of videos of the courtroom incident from social media platforms, the association stated that they stood in solidarity with the district judge for conducting himself with "integrity" and "independence". In an order passed by the Registrar General of Delhi high court, district judge Rakesh Kumar of Rohini court has been ordered to be attached with the director of the Delhi Judicial Academy in diverted capacity. Meanwhile, Dheeraj Mittal, an additional director with the academy, has been transferred in Kumar's place. The incident took place on May 15 during a case hearing, when the judge and the defence lawyer engaged in a verbal spat allegedly over the lawyer seeking an adjournment. A purported video of the incident shows the judge stan- ding on his podium while addressing the advocate in a heated tone. The judge is subsequently seen being escorted back to his chamber by the court staff. The Coordination Committee of all district courts bar associations stated that all lawyers shall abstain from judicial work on Monday in protest. The Judicial Service Association opposed the abstention of work by advocates due to the issue, calling it illegal according to Supreme Court guidelines....
