BMW sting: RK Anand tenders unconditional apology to SC

Noted criminal lawyer R K Anand, who was held guilty of attempting to influence the course of justice in the infamous BMW hit-and-run case, has tendered an unconditional apology to the Supreme Court. <br/> <br/>Mr Anand tendered his sincere and unqualified unconditional apology for all acts imputed to him in the sting operation carried out by a news channel in 2007 and as observed in the Supreme Court judgment. <br/> <br/>The reply by the advocate came on the apex court's show cause notice as to why he should not be given more punishment. Mr Anand pleaded before the court that his punishment should not be enhanced under section 12 of Contempt of Court Act. <br/> <br/>The Delhi High Court had held guilty two senior advocates– R K Anand and I U Khan, for obstructing administration of justice and, as a punishment, debarred them from appearing in courts for four months. However, the apex court had set aside the conviction of Khan from charges of contempt of court.<br/><br/>
