What Tejpal did falls in legal definition of rape: Victim

Rejecting “insinuations” that her complaint is part of a pre-election political conspiracy, the victim of Tehelka Editor Tarun Tejpal’s alleged sexual assault today said what he did to her “falls within the legal definition of rape”.

In a statement ahead of Tejpal’s journey to Goa to face police questioning, she said she was heartened by the broad support she has received over the past fortnight.
