Tarun Tejpal’s bail period extended

New Delhi: Tarun Tejpal, the accused in the sexual molestation case, has been granted extension of bail. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court in its order has extended his bail till June 27, added sources.

It is worth recollecting that Tehelka founder Tarun Tejpal, regarded the accusations of a young journalist of raping her as an oblique and un-precedented political motive to malign his image. The 50-year-old editor said he was shocked to learn that a false complaint was sought to be projected as an incident of alleged harassment, previously before the honourable court while seeking the bail.
