In a recent appeal, the court questioned the absence of CCTV footage that could have been pivotal in the case leading to Tejpal's acquittal.
The prosecution filed an appeal after Tejpal was acquitted in a criminal case, centering on the missing CCTV footage that could have clarified the events. It argues that the absence of the footage undermines the acquittal and calls for a fresh examination. The court will review the evidence and decide whether the missing footage warrants a retrial or a new hearing. The case underscores the importance of surveillance evidence in criminal proceedings.
