Kolkata: Justice Soumitra Sen of Calcutta High Court has resigned from the post five days before his accusation motion was to be taken up in the Lok Sabha. Justice Sen was held guilty of misappropriating Rs. 33.23 lakh in a case held in the year 1983.“I have decided not to go to the Lok Sabha and instead put in my papers,” articulated Sen, against whom the Rajya Sabha has approved an impeachment motion.
He has also sent his resignation to President Pratibha Patil and a copy of it to the Lok Sabha Speaker. As per lawyer Subhash Bhattacharya, in his letter to the President, Justice Sen has said that since Rajya Sabha has decided in its wisdom that he should not continue as a judge, he is resigning and wants to live as a common citizen.
