In his complaint, the ADJ said he was driving his car and his court orderly was also in the vehicle. “I was driving past the Jopling Road around 7.40 p.m. when a car hit my vehicle on the front left door. The car came to a screeching halt a few metres ahead and a man in his late 20s stepped out of it.
He came to me, caught me by my collar, hurled abuses, and dragged me out of my car. He pushed me down and tried choking my throat. My orderly Gaurav intervened and saved me from him. He then got back in his car and sped away.”
