Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari today said the legal process relating to the allegation of sexual assault against Tehelka editor Tarun Tejpal should be allowed to reach its logical conclusion.
"The alleged incident is unfortunate. There is a legal process which is playing itself out. It should be allowed to reach logical conclusion. It is incumbent upon all concerned to cooperate with legal processes and procedures," Tewari said.
Editor of Tehelka magazine Tarun Tejpal has been facing allegations of sexual assault of a journalist who was working under him.
