Chandigarh: Former DGP SPS Rathore's bail plea hearing has been deferred till tomorrow. The Punjab and Haryana High Court was to hear Rathore's bail petition on Monday initially.

He has petitioned the court for suspension of his sentence.

Rathore was sent to jail by a Chandigarh court which enhanced his sentence to one-and-a-half years for molesting Ruchika Girhotra.

Ruchika was molested by Rathore in August 1990, when she was just 14. She later committed suicide in 1993, after her family members were allegedly harassed by Rathore.

Rathore was convicted by a Chandigarh court in December last year.
