Supreme Court Defers Hearing on Tarun Tejpal's Conviction Appeal to November 5
The Supreme Court has postponed the hearing on Tarun Tejpal's appeal against his 10-year rape conviction to November 5. Tejpal's lawyer requested his release during Diwali, which the Goa government opposed. The case involves Tejpal's 2013 conviction by the Bombay High Court for sexually assaulting a junior colleague in Goa, overturning an earlier acquittal. The court will also consider the Goa government's plea to enhance his sentence.
