Former HC judge CS Karnan to be released from jail tomorrow

Former Calcutta High Court judge CS Karnan is set to be released on Wednesday after serving a six-month jail sentence, which was handed out to him by the Supreme Court for contempt. Karnan had earned the dubious distinction of becoming the first sitting high court judge to have been sentenced to jail. Karnan was a serving judge of the Calcutta High Court at that time. Karnan, who had enrolled as an advocate with the Bar Council of Tamil Nadu in 1983, was appointed a judge of the Madras High Court in 2009.
