>A former chair of the Criminal Bar Association (CBA) made a woman who was an aspiring lawyer have sex with him against her wishes, a disciplinary tribunal has heard.
>Navjot “Jo” Sidhu, who was once a contender to be the director of public prosecutions, is charged with 10 breaches of the Bar Standards Board (BSB) rules for alleged predatory behaviour towards two women.
>Sidhu, who chaired the CBA when it launched its 2022 strike over pay and was a king’s counsel until relinquishing his practising certificate as a barrister earlier this year, denies all the charges.
This is a very lawyerly way of describing the behaviour of a colleague. Normal people would call and report it as rape
He told the tribunal: “These two examples do not offset, we suggest, the many hundreds of people who came into contact with him who did not experience anything other than beneficial interactions with him.”
I find this particularly disturbing. The reward for behaving as you should isn’t getting to sexually assault someone once you feel like it!
It’s a sad state of affairs, and unfortunately, it’s quite common. If you’re unaware of the open secrets about someone in a position within an organization due to being someone’s bit on the side, you’re just not out there enough in your industry.
