Ambala, Oct 26 (PTI) A priest was today sentenced to a year in jail by a court here for having sex with his estranged wife, who was living separately, without her consent.

Additional Sessions Judge Poonam Suneja also imposed a fine of Rs 2,500 on the mahant (priest) of an Ambala dera.

After sentencing, the judge, however, granted the priest bail to enable him to challenge his conviction in a higher court.
