Indian-American tech mogul's hearing postponed amid scandal
Washington, Sep 14: A hearing for ad tech mogul Gurbaksh "G" Chahal on charges of domestic violence has been moved to November 13 amid reports that he paid a politician $1 million to make the charges “go away”.
Chahal was to appear before a San Francisco court Sep 11 for a hearing on charges of hitting and kicking a woman whom he met while on trial for 45 felony counts of similar behaviour directed at another woman, SFist reported.
No reason for the move was immediately given, but the postponement came after the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that Chahal paid former California assembly speaker and San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown $1 million to get video evidence deemed inadmissible.
