 "Tehelka scandal: Goa Police take Tarun Tejpal for potency test")
Panaji: Tehelka Editor Tarun Tejpal, facing charges of sexually assaulting a woman journalist, was on Monday taken to Goa Medical College Hospital for mandatory sexual potency test by the police.
Police sources said this was mandatory in a case of sexual assault.
50-year-old Tejpal was on Sunday remanded in six-day police custody by a court in Panaji after which Crime Branch officials grilled him for over five hours.
The sources said later a court will hear whether he can be provided with a fan while in police custody.
A woman journalist, who was employed with Tehelka, had accused Tejpal of sexually assaulting her twice on 7 and 8 November in a lift in a five-star hotel in Goa.
He has been booked under Sections 354A (outraging the modesty of a woman) and 376 (2)(K) (custodial rape) of IPC.
