Kolkata, Jan 14 (IANS): The Calcutta High Court has constituted a special three-judge bench to hear the petition filed by Justice Rajasekhar Mantha regarding attempts by a section of Trinamool Congress confidant lawyers resisting their fellow professionals from entering the latter's court that continued for two days earlier this week.

The commotion in front of Justice Mantha's court was ultimately cleared from Wednesday onwards after the latter issued a contempt of court rule and also filed a suo motu petition in the matter, though a section of the government pleaders and public prosecutors has continuing boycotting his court.

Meanwhile, the members of the three-judge bench constituted by Calcutta High Court's Chief Justice Prakash Srivastave are Justices T.S. Sivagnanam, Indra Prasanna Mukerji and Chittaranjan Dash.

The matter might come up for hearing anytime next week.
