- No mitigating circumstances except unqualified apology tendered at the end of proceedings — Sentence passed is not harsh. M. Azam Khan v. Zahid Hussain Chaudhry 1998 SCR 212 (B)
- Respondent No.2 is son of respondent No.1 — He was not a party in the previous litigation — Allegation against him was that he has been representing his father before revenue authorities — He is therefore not directly responsible for contempt of Court but is a privy to the offence — Since he has been acting under the parental authority of his father we take lenient view and accept his unqualified apology. M. Shafiat Khan v. Bostan Khan and 2 others 2000 SCR 532 (B)
