Judiciary Under Very Serious Threat, Says CJI Ranjan Gogoi After Sexual Harassment Allegations

New Delhi, Apr 20: Chief Justice of India (CJI) Ranjan Gogoi on Saturday rebutted the allegations of sexual harassment by a former woman employee.

Justice Gogoi said there is a "larger conspiracy" to destabilise the judiciary. He reportedly said there is some bigger force behind the woman who made sexual harassment charges.

"Independence of judiciary is under serious threat, very hurt with the allegations being levelled. Four media houses have published stories in great detail. I received communication from them," Justice Gogoi said during the hearing.
