NEW DELHI (AP) — A court in India's capital ruled Saturday that there's enough evidence in a stalking and sexual harassment case for former U.N. climate chief Rajendra Pachauri to stand trial.

Judge Shivani Chauhan announced that the next hearing in the case will be on July 11, the Press Trust of India news agency reported.

Police filed charges against Pachauri earlier this year after a female colleague filed a complaint. Pachauri, 75, has been charged with sexual harassment, stalking and criminal intimidation of the 29-year-old woman.

The judge said in her ruling that there was "sufficient material to proceed against" Pachauri, PTI reported. She said the allegations against him include making sexually explicit remarks, and inappropriate touching and texting.

Pachauri worked with the woman at The Energy and Resources Institute, or TERI, a New Delhi environmental think tank he had headed for more than three decades.

He has denied the allegations, but resigned last year from both the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and TERI after the woman's allegations were made public.

The allegations caused public uproar in India, where women face cultural taboos against discussing issues such as sexual harassment in the workplace.

Apart from the police investigation, TERI's internal complaints committee examined the evidence presented by the woman and questioned nearly 50 other employees, and concluded that the allegations of sexual harassment were valid.

Pachauri had chaired the U.N. climate panel — considered the world's authority on climate science — since 2002, and had accepted the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize on its behalf. The panel shared the award with former Vice President Al Gore.

The Global Warming made him do it...

Al Gore was chosen over a Polish woman who, during WWE II smuggled some 2,500 Jewish children/infants out of the Warsaw Ghetto under the noses of the SS. Tells you all you need to know about the Nobel Peace Prize, the Bozos and political hacks who award it, and the poseurs who receive it.

The International Panel on Climate Change which shared the award has since admitted the Mann Hockey Stick graph was based on faulty reading of global temperature data.

It wasn't based on faulty data. It was based on fraud. Mark Steyn has been involved in a suit over this with Michael Mann for years and years and years.

Interestingly enough on his website today Mark has a column on one of the growing consequences of opposition to GW/CC, the attempts to legally persecute "deniers".

That piece has some videos pertinent to what Mark correctly calls, the criminal enforcement of state ideology . If interested, please go to the link, but this caught my eye because it follows on what I posted earlier about his legal quarrel with Mann.

Other than that, the case is now approaching the start of its fifth year in the choked toilet of the District of Columbia "justice" system. For a word on its current status, including its delivery into the hands of a judge who takes three years to deliver rulings, see my recent testimony to the United States Senate
