Madras High Court Grants Bails To Judge CS Karnan In 10 Cases

Accepting the undertaking given by Justice Karnan, Justice V Bharathidasan granted him relief, but a conditional one.

Controversial former judge, Justice CS Karnan, arrested in December last year for allegedly making vulgar comments against women and remarks against judges, was granted bail by the Madras High Court on Tuesday. As many as 10 cases were pending against the former judge of the Madras and Calcutta High Courts. Accepting the undertaking given by Justice Karnan to the effect that he would not indulge in any such activities, Justice V Bharathidasan granted him the relief, but a conditional one. He had to furnish two sureties for Rs 50,000 each and stay in the city, not tamper with the witnesses and appear before the Investigating Officers as and when required.
