New Delhi, Jan 17 (TIWN) A Supreme Court lawyer on Monday once again received a threatening call warning the judges to refrain from hearing the Prime Minister's security breach case. "Today I once again received a threatening call on the same pattern as it was earlier received but this time the caller also took the name of Retired SC judge Justice Indu Malhotra," Supreme Court lawyer Vishnu Jain told IANS.
Today's calls warned "anti-Muslim and anti-Sikh" Supreme Court advocates they would be held "accountable" after a police case was filed over last week's messages.
"... first we warn advocates. The issue was between PM Modi and Sikhs, but you have filed complaint against SFJ (and) put yourself in a dangerous position. Now we will hold anti-Muslim and anti-Sikh Supreme Court advocates accountable," the caller said.
The calls apparently also contained messages like "(we) will block PM Modi on Jan 26 (Republic Day)" and "(we) will not let Justice Indu Malhotra investigate the PM security breach case".
NDTV cannot independently verify the authenticity of these calls.
Justice Malhotra (retd) was chosen to lead an independent inquiry into circumstances that left the PM's convoy stuck for 20 minutes on a flyover in Punjab's Ferozepur district.
"While we will block PM Modi on January 26, we will not allow Justice Indu Malhotra to investigate (PM) Modi terror plan... We are making a list of Supreme Court advocates and we will hold you accountable You will hear from us peacefully, democratically and loudly".
