Tarun Tejpal, accused of sexual assault on a woman colleague, today got interim bail till 2.30 p.m. from the Sessions Court here, which will pronounce its final order later in the afternoon.
Sessions Judge Anuja Prabhudesai gave Tejpal interim protection from arrest on a bail application moved by his lawyers.
Tejpal’s lawyers moved the court for bail after a joint team of Goa and Delhi police went to his residence in South Delhi’s Jungpura to arrest him this morning but did not find him there.
Later they carried out searches at various other places, including that of his relatives.
Tejpal’s lawyer Geeta Lutha told reporters later that he has been given interim bail till 2.30 p.m.
