Supreme Court on Wednesday stayed the Madras High Court order directing suspension of advocate R K Chandramohan from chairmanship of the Bar Council of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry for allegedly attempting to influence a judge by taking former Telecom Minister A Raja's name. A bench comprising justices D K Jain and H L Dattu also stayed the operation of the High Court direction asking the Bar Council of India to initiate disciplinary action against Chandramohan. The bench posted the matter for further hearing in the first week of January.
