Yesterday, I overheard about this incident.
A lawyer in District Court moved temporary bail application for his client. Application was attached with a apparently false medical certificate.
At top, date was different. Below his signature, the doctor had put another date.
It was obvious that certificate was prepared and signature of doctor was obtained on letter date.
The Judge was not amused.
He issued notice to Bar Council and also to medical council and also to Doctor.
Moral of story : A lawyer should carefully check medical certificate. Given by client.
