This statement by the judge is illogical. Can a murderer or a rapist say this? The judicial system of a nation has to be transparent, and accountable. The proceedings of courts should be telecast live as is done in nations like Canada and the USA. There should be a code of conduct for judges and judicial employees in the public domain. Even Pakistan has code of conduct for high court and Supreme Court judges in the public domain. What is needed is a law for litigants to save them from judicial bias and judicial corruption. Litigants are consumers of justice, and the legal system revolves around them, and they should not be ignored. Judges have to be made accountable for their judgments. Contempt laws should be abolished, as it discourages the public to speak about judicial corruption. Deendayal M. Lulla, Mumbai
