PANAJI: The Goa government said the court session court released Tehelka Founder-Editor Tarun Tejpal in alleged rape cases had been “consumed by sexual gossip” and allegations of “sexual fantasy” relating to the victims who were legally prohibited.
“The cross-examination of the victims expanded to almost 700 pages, spread over 18 hearing dates, did not lack brutal attacks on their character and accused the history of the past, which was designed to embarrass and embarrass it,” said the country in it.
Amendment application before the Bombay High Court in Goa.
“Not only these questions should not be permitted when recording evidence, the trial court has stepped further by using this question and matter to discredit it, even though they are not relevant to this case also cannot be included in the law.” Said the state.
This problem is likely to appear before the High Court on July 29.
The court will decide on the application submitted by the state that strives to appeal against court assessment.
While stating that all assessments focus on the indictment of people who survived rather than trying to ensure guilty accused roles, the application says that assessment of 527 pages is influenced by extraordinary materials and testimonies, and graphic details of past sexual history, which are prohibited by law.
The court has used the same thing to denounce its character and discredit the proof, the application said.
“The court eliminates the Prosecutrix version (survivor) based on the conception of how a victim is expected to behave while being sexually attacked.
This finding was by the court of non-sustainable trial in law and colored by prejudice and patriarchy,” said the country.
The court court also failed to appreciate the fact that the defendant himself was the editor in chief and the owner of Tehelka magazine, a man with a high-educated man in the position of power and authority, the application said.
It is also said that it is confusing that while the survivor qualifications and their work in matters relating to gender have been used against it, to discredit its testimony, the court has adopted there is no such standard by respecting the Fapam, late, and fully dishonest defense From Tejpal that the apology email sent to the Survivor was not sent or sent to the orders of others.
