The lawyer's statements made at a press conference earlier this month are "ex-facie contemptuous," the high court said, and ordered YouTube and a Marathi news channel to forthwith remove the video of the press conference.
Ojha represents Satish Salian, who has moved the HC seeking a probe into the death of his daughter Disha Salian in 2020.
A larger bench of Chief Justice Alok Aradhe and Justices A S Chandurkar, M S Sonak, Ravindra Ghuge and A S Gadkari said the remarks made by Ojha in the press conference held on April 1 against the sitting high court judge and a former Chief Justice of Bombay HC "lowered the dignity of the court".
