Bombay High Court overturns Tarun Tejpal's 'perverse' acquittal, sentences him to 10 years of rigorous imprisonment

The Bombay High Court overturned Tarun Tejpal's acquittal in a rape case. The court found the trial court's order perverse and influenced by stereotypes. Evidence was misread and inadmissible material was relied upon by the lower court. Tejpal was convicted and sentenced to ten years rigorous imprisonment for the offences. The High Court emphasized that victims cope with trauma differently and are not disbelieved.
