A Colombian judge has been suspended after she was seen smoking in bed during a virtual court hearing. Footage shows judge Vivian Polania lying in bed in her underwear while puffing on a cigarette. She was attending a Zoom court hearing related to a car bomb terror attack, reports The Independent.
In the video filmed last week, Vivian Polania, 34, appeared to be wearing a top and her underwear as she attended the hearing. She landed in trouble after one of the solicitors on call reported her for alleged impropriety, reports The Independent. The Judicial Disciplinary Commission in Norte de Santander ruled that she had violated multiple administrative regulations and handed her a three-month suspension.
Polania has been reprimanded in the past over the risqué photographs on her personal Instagram. This time, however, she was suspended because of her professional conduct – the judge was hearing a case about the bail of a man held for a car bombing that took place in June 2021 when she appeared on Zoom in her innerwear.
