The news of this incident spread like fire and the lady advocate left the court premises. Later other lawyers rang her up and asked her to get back to the court. The moment she reached the court, the younger lawyers got agitated and reportedly they also gathered round her with an intention of hitting her. Lady police patrol reached the court, freed this lady advocate and locked her up in a chamber in the office of bar association.

It was the occasion of oath taking ceremony of the new members of bar association. The program was being held in court premises on Saturday.  When the President was taking his oath, his parents, brother, wife and daughter were also present.

Witnesses said that the moment the new President’s family reached the car, the lady advocate who was already present there in her own car tried to pull in the daughter of the President. The lady advocate was assisted by 3 youth. The other lawyers present on the scene saw this and freed the little girl from the clutches of the lady advocate and handed her safely to her parents.
