Mumbai judge had ‘Nyayadhish’ sticker on his car. Then 2 men threatened to kill him

On September 1, a Mumbai judge named Sashikant Bangar was reported to have had a "Nyayadhish" sticker on his car, which allegedly led two men to threaten his life. The incident occurred near Dadar on July 13 when the judge, accompanied by his wife and daughter, was returning from Dhule. The two unidentified men stopped his vehicle, questioned him about the "Nyayadhish" sticker on the dashboard, and demanded to know his identity.

The judge explained that he was a district judge and a member of the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, and that the car was being used for official travel. As the men became aggressive, one of them reportedly pushed the judge when his wife and another elderly person intervened to calm the situation. Despite the efforts of the bystanders, the men continued to verbally abuse the judge and his family, threatening to beat him up.

The Matunga Police have registered an FIR against the two men for their alleged abuse and threats, and are currently investigating the matter. They will examine CCTV footage and other evidence in an attempt to identify the accused.
