“Visuals showing Karnataka High Court Judge stripping the lawyer, who defended the petitioners of Hijab case”
What FACTLY found
The viral visuals actually show Karnataka High Court proceedings dated 03 March 2022, much before the hijab judgment was pronounced. The proceedings were related to a commercial appeal and not the hijab case. Moreover, the CJ did not strip off the lawyer as claimed in the viral post but spared the advocate taking his age into consideration
