Tehelka case: sexual assault, cover-up, now intimidation?
The noose tightens around Tehelka founder Tarun Tejpal as the woman journalist who accused him of sexual assault now reveals that a person close to Mr Tejpal visited her home in Delhi, and demanded that she drop the charges against him. This after Mr Tejpal wrote to the young journalist admitting to two incidents of sexual assault, as well as threatening to misuse his position as editor of her magazine - clear contradictions to initial claims made by Mr Tejpal and Tehelka. Join us as we discuss the culpability of Mr Tejpal and Tehelka's Managing Editor Shoma Chaudhury for sexual harassment in the workplace with a panel of eminent feminists as well as a close friend of the woman journalist herself who left the magazine in the wake of the revelations.
