No professional misconduct on our part: Defense lawyer in Dec 16 case

The defence counsel of a December 16 gang rape convict said on Saturday that he did not receive any showcause notice from the Bar Council of India (BCI) for his "outrageous" comments in a controversial documentary based on the ghastly case that shook the nation.Defense lawyer ML Sharma said that the court has placed a stay on the release of the documentary, and that they have not committed any contempt of court but blamed those who watched that documentary for the same. He said that the people viewing the documentary and spreading the word about it, were in contempt of the court, as there was a ban on the same.
