Now Tehelka’s Tejpal accused of harassing cops
Tehelka editor Tarun Tejpal, who faces charges of sexual harassment by a journalist, has been accused of harassing cops who went to interrogate him.
The episode started with Goa cops landing up at Tejpal’s residence on Saturday morning. As soon as the cops walked in, Tejpal greeted them with a crisp “wothca" followed by aye-up me laddies and Ow do”. As soon as the cops heard these phrases, they looked at each other and froze in panic. They had forgotten their dictionaries at home. A junior SI was immediately dispatched to get a copy of the latest OED.
Meanwhile the cops sat down and pulled out a book to note Tejpal’s responses. Each question was answered by Tejpal in Queen’s English and though the dictionary arrived, it was of no use as there was no time to translate every word spoken by Tejpal. “Blimey, you Goa quangos have arrived here in your blues and twos to nick me? I refuse to sit on the hob and you will not get me there, do you hear? I have dossed enough! Now I seek to display my factual flank to you. And if you expect any dosh from me, you might as well wrap your chunter and accept the clanger that you have perpetrated,” Tejpal said.
He came with similar nuggets in succession to mislead the visiting cops. After a while, the cops couldn’t take it anymore, they left. Tejpal was seen grinning ear to ear as the cops were leaving. The cops got back to Goa and filed a case against him for causing mental agony and harassment against Tejpal.
Cops seize compliant button at Tehelka office
Goa cops who paid a visit to Tehelka’s office in Delhi, seized a button to be pressed by those wishing to register a complaint against any Tehelka staffer. The button, meant to discourage those who wish to register a complaint, activates a mouse trap when pressed. The trap flings painfully on the person who presses it. The button will be presented as evidence in the case, senior cops told Humor Unplugged.

apparently tejpal was inebriated after a party. and you have NO idea how these HI FI women try to c0ck tease people in power, for their own gain .
ReplyDeletein the lift tejpal tried to molest the girl -- he has admitted to that. apparently he could resist everything except temptation .
there is a difference between IPC sections for MOLESTATION and RAPE .
FOR RAPE, CLOTHES WILL BE TORN, THERE WILL BE SOME SIGN OF STRUGGLE -- NOTHING OF THIS SORT WAS THERE .
but then tehelka deserves this-- after all the vulgar waitress , has been using them as her Rottweiler .
i have seen the shabby behavior of muslim journalist rana ayyub -- she is as bad as barkha dutt-- openly GREEN tinted .
tehelka has been using their journalists as HONEY POTS -- though they have denied it on TV several times -- and in print too .
TEHELKA NEVER EVER HAD CLEAN JOURNALISM .
they had this delusion of being invincible, having their own sponsors like NDTV .
her holier than thou attitude ( of YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW , SHOMA CHAUDHURY ) and her self-righteousness to the ridiculous point of holding her own farts, has taken a huge sock on the nose -- to be bloodied and dripping red forever .
her 6 months cosy sabbatical punishment for tejpal , beat president bush who famously said " gentlemen, i think we agree that the past is over" .
agreed every big company has a dirty tricks department-- but for tekelka this department spread to occupy 100% of their office .
hitting below their belt was their signature move .
HAVE YOU NOTICES THAT THE WAITRESS AND HER COTERIE IS DEAFENING IN THEIR SILENCE OVER TEJPAL ?
THEY FORGOT THE 11TH COMMANDMENT, OF "THOU SHALT NOT BE CAUGHT" .
so how will capt ajit vadakayil sum up tehelka -- BRILLIANT ON PAPER, SH#T ON FIELD .
in the annals of journalism, tehelka will serve as a bad example .
tehelka has standards--it may be at rock bottom, but they have it, TEE HEEEEE !
when modi comes to power , where will tehelka and their UPA sponsors run ?
punch into Google search-
THE WORST JOURNALIST VADAKAYIL .

Wow! Thanks for sharing all this, Cap. Stuff to think about.
ReplyDeleteFunny article, funnier comment :) In the election season, this one would be just a precursor to many more to come.
ReplyDelete:) sure Rajesh...next 6 months will be a roller coaster :)
ReplyDeleteAmazing article :) And to the person above- look I do not want to sound too impertinent but does a state of inebriation somehow justify any kind of harassment? Well actually dont answer that! *sigh*
