MP High Court Holds Advocate Guilty Of Contempt For Forging Signature On Affidavit; Directs Enquiry Against Oath Commissioner For Executing It

Live Law  

The Madhya Pradesh High Court, Gwalior bench recently held an Advocate guilty of contempt for forging signatures of the Petitioner on an affidavit. The Court, however, directed an enquiry against the oath commissioner for executing the document- Thus, it is clear that the father of the prosecutrix never appeared before Shri D.V.S. The Court opined that his unconditional apology could be considered even though he committed an unpardonable mistake- Accordingly, the unconditional apology tendered by Shri Mehmood Khan, Advocate is hereby accepted with a warning that he should not repeat the same in future and if he is found indulged in such type of practice in future also, then no apologizes would be accepted. Since the oath commissioner was not issued any notice in the contempt case, the Court decided not to comment on his role in the matter.
