A Delhi court has sentenced conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar to eight years in jail for impersonating a Supreme Court judge during a bail proceeding, terming the act “institutional sacrilege” and a possible attack on the very integrity of the judicial process. 

The order dated August 29 was made available on Monday. The case arose from a phone call made on April 28, 2017, while Chandrasekhar was in custody in a corruption case.
