Subhash Bhattacharya, the lawyer of Calcutta High Court judge Soumitra Sen, said here on Wednesday that the findings of the three-member committee set up by the Rajya Sabha Chairman, Hamid Ansari, will be contested in Parliament.
The committee has found the allegations of misappropriation of funds against Justice Sen to be true. “We will contest the findings in Parliament. According to the law, there will be a joint session and a debate on the issue,” Mr. Bhattacharya told TheHindu .
“The question of Justice Sen resigning does not arise,” he added.
