Lawyer tries to hurl shoe towards CJI Gavai in courtroom

A lawyer allegedly attempted to hurl a shoe at Chief Justice of India BR Gavai during proceedings in the Supreme Court on Monday, according to reports from lawyers present.

The incident took place while a Bench led by the CJI was hearing the mentioning of cases by lawyers. The lawyer approached the dais, removed his shoe, and tried to throw it towards the judge. Alert security personnel inside the courtroom immediately intervened and prevented the attack.

The lawyer was swiftly escorted out of the court premises. As he was being taken away, he was heard shouting, “Sanatan ka apman nahi sahenge” (We will not tolerate insult of Sanatan Dharma).

Despite the disruption, the Chief Justice remained composed and urged the lawyers present to continue with their arguments. “Don’t get distracted by all this. We are not distracted. These things do not affect me,” the CJI remarked.

The apex court’s security unit has initiated an inquiry into the incident. Further details about the lawyer and the possible motives behind the act are awaited.

US Treasury Department mulls minting USD 1 Trump coin

The Treasury Department is considering producing a one-dollar coin featuring US President Donald Trump to commemorate the 250th anniversary of US independence next year, a spokesperson said, according to Politico.

The draft design of the coin, overseen by the Office of the US Treasurer Brandon Beach, features Trump’s profile on one side. The opposite side depicts Trump with a clenched fist in front of an American flag alongside the words “FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT,” as reported by Politico.

“Despite the radical left’s forced shutdown of our government, the facts are clear: Under the historic leadership of President Donald J. Trump, our nation is entering its 250th anniversary stronger, more prosperous, and better than ever before,” a Treasury Department spokesperson said in a statement.

“While a final USD 1 coin design has not yet been selected to commemorate the United States’ semiquincentennial, this first draft reflects well the enduring spirit of our country and democracy, even in the face of immense obstacles,” the spokesperson added.

Congress passed bipartisan legislation in 2020, signed by Trump during his first term, authorizing the Treasury Secretary to issue one-dollar coins during the 2026 calendar year. The design of these coins must be “emblematic of the United States semiquincentennial,” according to Politico.

It is notable that living people are rarely featured on US currency. Congress has imposed various restrictions on the Treasury’s ability to feature living individuals, including living presidents, on money. It remains unclear whether the latest Trump coin envisioned by the Treasury Department would comply with these laws.

When asked about the coin on Friday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters she was unsure whether Trump was aware of the effort to put his likeness on a coin. “I’m not sure if he’s seen it but I’m sure he’ll love it,” she said, according to Politico.

Coins worth over USD 1 million recovered from 1715 shipwreck

A salvage crew has recovered over 1,000 silver coins, five gold coins, and rare gold artifacts worth USD 1 million from the 1715 Spanish Treasure Fleet shipwreck off Florida’s Treasure Coast. This remarkable discovery comes more than 300 years after a hurricane sank the fleet.

The find offers a rare glimpse into colonial-era maritime history, with many coins displaying visible dates and mint marks. After conservation, these treasures will be displayed in local museums, enriching public heritage and providing valuable educational opportunities.

Unearthing more than 1,000 coins at once is exceptionally rare and hints at the possibility of further treasures lying offshore.
