On May 30, 2007 NDTV exposed the nexus between the two well-known lawyers, who tried to influence a key witness in the BMW hit-and-run case.
Defence lawyer R K Anand and public prosecutor I U Khan were caught on hidden camera trying to win over Sunil Kulkarni who on the night of 10th January 1999 saw Sanjeev Nanda drive his black BMW on Delhi's Lodhi Road.
Khan was immediately removed from the case and the Delhi Bar Council asked both lawyers for an explanation and started an inquiry against them.
The Delhi high court took suo motu cognizance of the expose.
NDTV was asked to submit original tapes of the recordings, but the lawyers protested that the tapes were tampered with.
The case was heard for over a year.
Eventually in August 2008, the High Court found both of the lawyers guilty.
They were barred them from Delhi courts for four months and stripped off their seniority.
Anand and Khan appealed against the high court order in the Supreme Court.
