The Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld the conviction of advocate R K Anand for contempt of court by attempting to influence controversial witness Sunil Kulkarni in the infamous BMW hit-and-run case. In its judgment, the apex court also indicated the possibility of enhancing Anand's sentence. Referring to the criticism about the sting operation carried out by a news channel, the apex court noted that it was not a typical case of trial by the media.
Asked if Sunil Kulkarni will be dropped as a witness, as his motives were suspect in the light of the television expose, the Delhi police chief said this was a legal matter and was being examined by the experts.
The channel, which had done a sting operation in May last alleging an attempt to bribe the key witness Sunil Kulkarni, aired a story on Monday night alleging that Kulkarni stayed in the lawyer's house in Shimla between October, 1999 and April, 2001.
Sunil Kulkarni, a Mumbai-based trader and an eyewitness to the incident in which Sanjeev is facing trial along with three others, also said that he had given a different version about a particular point under police pressure.
Kulkarni also alleged that ACP Ranbeer Singh had beaten him mercilessly at Hauz Khas police station before the recording of his testimony in the court in 1999.
Anand served a legal notice on the channel asking it to immediately stop telecast of any news story relating to him failing which he would sue them for damages worth Rs 50 crore.
However, Khan and Anand washed their hands off the entire episode. In fact, Khan had sent a notice to the channel's chief editor ten days back explaining his position.
