Tarun Tejpal Case Explained: Charges, Sentence, High Court Observations & 2013 Email
The Bombay High Court on Thursday convicted Tarun Tejpal, the founder and former editor of Tehelka magazine, in a 2013 sexual assault case. The Goa bench of the Bombay High Court comprising Justices Dr Neela Gokhale and Amit Jamsandekar had reserved the judgement last week following detailed arguments from both sides.
Solicitor General of India Tushar Mehta argued the Goa government's appeal seeking to set aside the acquittal, while senior advocate Abad Ponda represented 62-year-old Tejpal.
