A pair of monkeys made an unexpected entrance, sparking laughter and capturing attention as they executed a cheeky bag heist at the India's Supreme Court.
Footage shared by senior advocate Sanjay Hegde shows the mischievous monkeys leaping into a crowded corridor. One of the primates skillfully jumped onto a shelf near a courtroom door and snatched a tote bag before making a swift return to the parapet.
As amused lawyers looked on, the monkey rummaged through the bag, extracting a lunchbox and tossing the tote back over the edge. The scene was a spectacle, with several legal professionals recording the antics and sharing laughs as the primate struggled to open its newfound treasure.
The incident has since sparked a flurry of humorous reactions online. One user quipped, "Was it carrying any brief? Because some lawyers never pass on; they just replace their outer rendering." Another commented on the monkeys' actions as a whimsical way of assisting the public in their quest for justice, while yet another joked about the implications of the bag's disappearance on a lawyer's court proceedings.
"Snatching in broad daylight at the Supreme Court. Law and order problem," one observer remarked, highlighting the absurdity of the situation.
As the laughter continued, the legal community embraced the lighthearted moment, proving that even in the hallowed corridors of justice, there’s always room for a bit of monkey business.
