“Apology is an act of contrition. Unless apology is offered at the earliest opportunity and in good grace apology is shorn of penitence. If apology is offered at a time when the contemnor finds that the Court is going to impose punishment it ceases to be an apology and it becomes an act of a cringing coward. The High Court was right in not taking any notice of the appellants expression of apology “without any further word”. The High Court correctly said that acceptance of apology in the case would amount to allow the offender to go way with impunity after having committed gross contempt.”
