You know I am attracted to you' Justice AK Ganguly told intern & kissed her arm
[Editor: It seems that the best way to remove a person from an important positions is to bring in a sexual harassment case and then BUY the GREAT INDIAN MEDIA; half the job is done. If any case has to be initiated against any former judge of the honourable Supreme Court of India, then it has to be done by the application of standard procedures and not by publishing the affidavit of the "alleged victim". The office of the Additional Solicitor General of India has gone BONKERS or what?]
New Delhi, Dec 16, 2013: The law intern who has accused Justice AK Ganguly of sexual harassment told a court panel that the ex-SC judge kissed her and said that he loved me.

Following the allegations, the Chief Justice announced that he had set up a committee in his administrative capacity, of three judges, two being incumbent chief justices and a woman judge, to investigate and give a report to the Chief Justice.

Justice Ganguly, who now heads the West Bengal Human Rights Commission, had expressed “shock” over the allegation and said he was “shattered“.

“I am denying everything. I have told the committee that all the allegations levelled by the intern are wrong. I don’t know how such allegations have been levelled against me,” he told

According to Indian Express, in his statement before the court, apart from denying the allegations, Ganguly said the new law of 2013 making sexual harassment an offence did not apply to him as the alleged incident was of 2012, forgetting that outraging the modesty of a woman was always an offence, a law under which K P S Gill was prosecuted successfully by Rupan Deol Bajaj.
