The woman who alleged sexual harassment by the Chief Justice of India has decided not to participate in the proceeding. She has said that she felt "intimidated and nervous in the presence of three Hon'ble Judges of the Supreme Court and without having a lawyer or support person". "I felt I was not likely to get justice from this committee and so I am no longer participating in the 3 Judge Committee proceedings", the complainant said.
She has stated the following factors for her decision:
"1. I have not been allowed to have the presence of my lawyer/support person despite my impaired hearing, nervousness and fear.
2. There is no video or audio recording of the Committee proceedings.
3. I have not been supplied even a copy of my statement as recorded on 26th and 29th April 2019.
4. I was not informed about the procedure this committee is following".
