A special investigation team of Goa Police today reached Delhi to quiz Tehelka editor Tarun Tejpal, who has been charged with sexually assualting a woman colleague, and its managing editor Shoma Chaudhury. It will also try to meet the victim and get an independent statement from her.

According to a senior Goa police official, the four-member Crime Branch team which arrived at around noon in the national capital is likely to record the statement of Chaudhury before further action.

Goa Police had on Friday filed an FIR against Tejpal under various sections of IPC in connection with the incident that took place during an event in Goa a fortnight ago. Conviction under Section 376 of IPC entails a maximum of life term in jail.
