Tejpal was accused of sexually assaulting a female colleague inside the elevator of a luxury hotel in Goa in 2013 and has been out on bail since May 2014.
The court made the observation while hearing a plea by journalist Varun Hiremath, who is accused of raping a woman in February. According to him, the incident was consensual.
In ‘After I Was Raped’, Urmi Bhattacheryya writes about a 4-year-old girl, two Dalit women, an 8-month-old infant and a young professional and their stories of sexual violence.
Justice Mukta Gupta granted Varun Hiremath protection on the grounds that he joins the police investigation. The court listed the matter for further hearing on 16 April.
The court dismissed a bail plea of a Mumbai-based journalist, saying that if the woman stated in her evidence that she did not consent, the court shall presume that she did not.
SI Devendra Yadav, father of accused Deepu Yadav's father, was earlier booked for 'murder' of the 13-year-old 'rape' victim's father who died in a hit-and-run day after filing complaint.
In her complaint, the girl said that the accused raped her several times in the past one year and threatened dire consequences if she reported the matter to anyone.
The girl had gone to collect fodder for cattle Sunday afternoon but did not return. Her body was found in a field when her family started looking for her, said police.
The IndiGo crisis is nothing short of a threat to India’s stability. Could it be an experiment? Can this happen in any other crucial sector like power or railways?
RBI Handbook of Statistics shows state’s GSDP has more than doubled in past decade, finishing second behind Maharashtra. It has performed well across health & education parameters as well.
It is argued that India-Israel ties are moving from buyer–seller dynamic to one focused on joint development & manufacturing partnership, a shift 'more durable' than traditional arms sales.
Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
