On Wednesday, a Goa sessions court deferred the pronouncement of judgment in the case of sexual assault against Tarun Tejpal, former editor-in-chief of the news magazine Tehelka, to 19 May.
The Mapusa District and Sessions Court in North Goa cited a shortage of staff on account of Covid-19 for delaying the judgment. While the case was earlier listed for judgment on April 27, the court had deferred it till Wednesday.
Tejpal, who was accused of raping a woman, faced trial in the November case in which the victim had accused him of sexually assaulting her inside a lift at a five-star hotel in Goa.
Tejpal was arrested on November 30, 2013, but later released on bail.
