Tejpal case: Three witnesses depose in Goa court


Panaji, Dec 6 (IANS): Three witnesses in the Tarun Tejpal sexual assault case Friday recorded their respective statements in a Goa court before a judicial magistrate, officials said.

Ishan Tankha, G. Vishnu and Shougat Dasgupta -- all employees of the Tehelka weekly news magazine who have resigned since the incident -- were the people in whom the victim confided soon after she was sexually assaulted by Tejpal in an elevator of a five-star hotel in Goa.

Police also expect this weekend to record the statement of Shoma Chaudhury, managing editor of the weekly, who has since resigned.

Tejpal, Tehelka editor-in-chief, sexually assaulted a junior colleague -- who has since resigned -- in an elevator of a five-star hotel in Goa Nov 7 and 8.
