Viral Video: A bizarre video of a lawyer seemingly kissing a woman before the virtual proceedings of the Delhi High Court is doing the rounds on the internet. The incident breached court protocols, sparking debate over professional conduct. The viral moment reportedly took place on Tuesday when the people were waiting for the session to begin.
The lawyer, who attended the meeting via video conferencing, was seen sitting at home in court attire. He was positioned a bit off the side, with only his face visible, when a woman dressed in a saree came and stood in front of him. In the clip, the lawyer initially grabs her hand and pulls her closer to him. The woman, however, seemed a bit hesitant. She tried to resist at first, but the lawyers gently gave her a quick kiss before she stepped back.
