New Delhi, Feb 17: Arrested JNU student leader Kanhaiya Kumar was allegedly attacked by lawyers at Patiala House Court premises on Wednesday.kanhaiya

A group of lawyers bet him up as the police produced him in the court, said media reports.

The Supreme Court has sent a team of lawyers under police protection on a fact finding mission.

Earlier, in an open defiance of Supreme Court order, a large group of men dressed in lawyers' robes barged into the Patiala House court complex and allegedly beat up a journalist and a student ahead of the hearing in the sedition case of JNU students' union President Kanhaiya Kumar.

The group, which could be seen raising slogans "Vande Mataram" and waving India's flag in the court premises, was led by Vikram Chauhan, one of the lawyers who had attacked JNU students and faculty on February 15.

The journalist, identified as Anwar of news channel CNN IBN, said despite heavy police deployment, clashes erupted in the court complex and the cops' presence did not deter the lawyers from shouting slogans and fighting with journalists and students.
The Supreme Court had, earlier in the day, restricted the number of people inside the courtroom, allowing only five reporters and two supporters of the arrested students to attend the hearing.

The apex court had acted on a petition that alleged that the police were a "mute spectator to the brazen display of brute force" on February 15.

On Monday, groups of lawyers had beaten up journalists and JNU students and teachers ahead of the hearing of the sedition case registered against Kumar.

Yesterday, top editors of national media and hundreds of journalists had hit the streets demanding action against those involved in beating up members of their fraternity in the court complex in police presence.

The journalists had also sought Supreme Court's intervention in protecting freedom of speech.
