Supreme Court Closes Case Of Sexual Harassment Against Ranjan Gogoi

The Supreme Court on Thursday shut the suo motu proceedings against former CJI Ranjan Gogoi in the 2019 sexual harassment case against him saying a possible conspiracy may have been hatched against the former judge, which led to the allegations.

The sexual harassment case against former CJI Ranjan Gogoi was listed for hearing in the Supreme Court after almost two years and Justice Kaul said that the possibility of retrieving electronic records is very less.

During the hearing on Thursday, Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul observed, “There was some reason to believe that some judgments had led to a conspiracy being hatched against the then CJI.”
