Lawyer Prashant Bhushan sought urgent hearing of the matter filed by another advocate Kamini Jaiswal on the issue. The plea, which was filed yesterday in the apex court, also sought a direction to set up a Special Investigation Team to probe the incidents.<br/><br/> It has sought suo motu contempt proceeding against lawyers Vikram Singh Chauhan, Yashpal Singh and Om Sharma on the ground that they have allegedly been caught on camera talking about the attacks. The petition which also makes Ministry of Home Affairs and Delhi Police as parties, has said facts have come to light that there was blatant violation of the rule of law in the trial court premises.
