Supreme Court Gives Prashant Bhushan 2 Days To Reconsider Statement

A week after lawyer-activist Prashant Bhushan was held guilty of contempt for his two tweets on Chief Justice of India SA Bobde and the Supreme Court, Mr Bhushan today told the top court that he is "pained" that he has been "grossly misunderstood". The top court gave the 63-year-old lawyer two days "to reconsider" his statement as Justice Arun Mishra said: "There is no person on Earth who cannot commit a mistake. You may do hundreds good things but that doesn't give you a license to do 10 crimes. Whatever has been done is done. But we want the person concerned to have a sense of remorse."
