The Supreme Court of India on Tuesday dismissed a petition filed by lawyer Gautam Khaitan in connection with the AgustaWestland VVIP helicopter scam, emphasizing that attempts by wealthy accused to bypass the judicial process will not be tolerated. The two-judge bench, comprising Chief Justice Suryakant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi, noted that rich individuals increasingly challenge the validity of laws in higher courts instead of facing trial.
