New Delhi, Feb 24 (SocialNews.XYZ) President of the UK Supreme Court Lord Robert John Reed visited the Supreme Court and briefly witnessed the proceedings, here on Monday.

The courtroom was packed to the brink.

 

He sat with the Chief Justice for nearly 15 minutes. Attorney General K.K. Venugopal also greeted the Lord Reed in the courtroom.

The official announced matters for the urgent hearing would be taken up after the completion of the court proceedings.

The Bench first took up the arbitration matter, which was argued by former Attorney General and senior advocate Mukul Rohatgi. He also greeted the UK judge.

After conducting hearing few cases, the Bench rose and then re-assembled, sans Justice Reed, to take up other matters listed for hearing.
