Top Court rushed senior lawyers to probe violence against Kanhaiya Kumar
Violence erupted at the court - just as it had on Monday - before Mr Kumar's arrival.

The lawyers reported to the Supreme Court that there was "a crowd of a proportion we haven't seen," that the police had failed to control the situation, and that Mr Kumar, who is 28, told them he was "terrorised."
