as despite being given adequate time to explain his conduct &#8220;he resorted to falsehood&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the present case, the long history of the litigation shows that repeated undertakings were breached; when called upon to answer why action should not be taken, the appellant and his wife gave false and evasive replies; these included affirming a false affidavit.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In these circumstances, this court is of the view that the complaint about failure to follow the procedure prescribed cannot be countenanced; the appellant was furnished appropriate and adequate opportunity to explain his conduct, but instead he resorted to falsehood,&#8221; the court said.<\/p>\n<p>The bench also said that &#8220;when the appellant (Yadav) was afforded abundant opportunities to make amends, the conduct which he displayed was deplorable, to put it mildly&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The contempt action was initiated against the actor for misleading the court in a recovery suit filed against him and his wife by a businessman.<\/p>\n<p>The single judge bench, which was hearing the recovery suit, had taken exception to the affidavit filed by Yadav on December 2, 2013 which was allegedly falsely prepared and contained forged signatures of his wife.<\/p>\n<p>Annoyed by the affidavit, the court had ordered that Yadav be sent to jail for 10 days for contempt and directed that his wife, who had appeared with their child before the court, be kept in the office of the Registrar General till the rising of the court.<\/p>\n<p>Delhi-based businessman M G Agarwal had filed a recovery suit against the actor and his wife for failing to repay a loan of Rs five crore which the Yadav had taken in 2010 to make his directorial debut.<\/p>\n<p>( Source &#8211;
