Kerala legislator and former Transport Minister Antony Raju has been convicted in a 36-year-old case involving the alleged tampering of underwear evidence. The case dates back to 1990 when an Australian national was arrested for smuggling contraband. Raju, who was the lawyer for the accused, is the second person charged. The verdict follows a Supreme Court decision that revived criminal proceedings after a previous High Court quashing. Sentencing is pending, with potential punishments ranging from ten years to life imprisonment.
