Tampering with witness of other side by threat by advocate a

 

Tampering with witness of other side by threat by Advocate amounts to professional misconduct

 
The charges are serious. This class of offence, the intimidation and tutoring of witnesses, is only too common. In the ordinary individual it is bad enough. In the case of a member of the legal profession it is a far graver offence. It is unnecessary to dilate upon this. It shows that the Vakil is unfit to be a member of the honourable profession to which at present he belongs. The fact that he has in his defence produced evidence of a highly suspicious character, like the letter of November 6th, 1917, goes to show that his idea of the honour of his profession and its true standard of morality is a very low one. The production of such evidence in his case is sufficient in itself to disqualify for the Bar.
