The Delhi High Court has directed the CBI to issue a Red Corner Notice through Interpol to trace Adeeshwar Singhal, who faces criminal contempt proceedings for making scandalous allegations and threatening judges. A division bench of Justice Navin Chawla and Justice Ravinder Dudeja passed the order on September 18 after noting that non-bailable warrants and a Look Out Circular had failed to secure Singhal’s presence. The court was told Singhal travelled to Italy in August 2024 and his Indian passport has expired. During a video conference appearance on September 18, Singhal made further unfounded allegations, the court noted. The IP address from which he joined a previous hearing in April was traced to Gilroy, California. The court directed the Ministry of External Affairs to inform US authorities about the warrants and passport expiry. The Cyber Cell of Delhi Police will investigate the IP address used on September 18. Singhal has been directed to appear in person on December 9, the next hearing date.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Both sources report the same core facts: the Delhi High Court ordered a Red Corner Notice against Adeeshwar Singhal for contempt. Barandbench.com leads with the procedural 'inquest' aspect, detailing court warnings and IP address investigations. Livelaw.in opens by foregrounding the 'threatening judges and abusive remarks' allegation, framing the conduct more severely. The difference is minor: barandbench.com emphasises the court's mechanism to secure presence, livelaw.in leads with the gravity of the charges. The unified reporting suggests a standard court-watch approach. The December 9 hearing will determine if the Interpol notice yields compliance or escalates the matter further.
