NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court has issued show cause notice for contempt of court to a Sydney-based woman, for abusing the Court by saying, Ye saali kya kar rahi hai, what the f.... is going on in this Court.

Taking suo-moto cognizance on the use of abusive language, the Court has issued a number of directions, including:

1. Directing the concerned woman, one Anita Kumari Gupta, to appear before Court in person on the next date of hearing i.e. Apr 16, 24.

2. Directing FRRO, Delhi to impound her passport/ visa on arrival, in case she comes to India before the date fixed for hearing andnot permitting her to leave the country without the direction of the Court.

3. Directing the High Commission of India at Canberra, Australia to communicate the Court's order to the woman through the Consulate General of India, Sydney, Australia.

The order further records that the woman had passed the remark, "How could item No. 11 be taken before Item No. 10?", before using abusive language while she had joined the Court proceedings through the video conferencing facility.

The Court narrates that at joint consent of the counsels for the parties, the matter was listed on Apr 16, 24 and Gupta had joined after the date was given and item No. 11 was taken up.

"Such aforesaid derogatory remarks made by the plaintiff/Anita Kumari Gupta to denigrate the Court are patently contemptuous and show the complete disregard to the dignity of the Court, despite the fact that the counsels representing respective parties were present and had agreed to the date given i.e., 16.04.2024 for final arguments," the Court said.

"Keeping in view such derogatory remarks lowering the dignity of the Court, the Suo Moto Contempt is taken," it ordered.
