The Delhi high court has sentenced a YouTuber to six months in prison over remarks against the judiciary on his platform.

Gulshan Pahuja was found guilty of contempt of court after uploading videos that slammed the judicial system and made derogatory remarks against advocates.

The court noted that Pahuja made further remarks against the judicial system, stating that 'adaalaton ki manmarzi badhti jaa rahi hai' (the arbitrary actions of the courts are increasing and I am not expecting any justice).

A fine of ₹2,000 was also imposed on the YouTuber, who has been asked to surrender before the registrar general after 60 days if a suspension order is not passed by the Supreme Court.
