CS Karnan, retd Calcutta HC judge on the run since May 9, arrested in Coimbatore


Karnan, 62, was sentenced to serve a six-month jail term by the Surpeme Court on May 9 for contempt of court. Three teams of West Bengal police arrested him from private resort in Tamil Nadu, his home state. Raj Kanojia, West Bengal director general of police (home guards), told reporters Karnan was arrested at around 7pm. Coimbatore city police commissioner Amalraj said they only provided “technical support” to the Bengal police team to trace Karnan. Karnan was transferred to Calcutta from the Madras high court in March last year after repeated allegations and run-ins with fellow judges.
