NEW DELHI: Congress on Thursday condemned the alleged sexual assault of a young woman colleague by Tehelka editor Tarun Tejpal and said action should be initiated against anyone found guilty of such an offence, irrespective of one's position.

Congress also raised concerns over such "black-sheep" existing in all four pillars of democracy and called for corrective measures.

"On the issue of sexual assault, the Congress party's stand is clear that anyone found guilty of such an offence, action should be initiated against him...This is condemnable. It should be condemned," party spokesperson Meem Afzal said.

"Be it a anyone big or small, the demand for action remains the same...If black sheep are there in the four pillars of democracy, who are not common people but guide them, then it is a very serious issue. Corrective measures will have to be taken. All will have to come forward in this fight," Afzal said.

He lamented that in the recent past, such incidents of sexual assault against women have been reported against people in high positions in the legislature, executive and judiciary and now against someone in the media, saying this is a "serious issue"

The Congress leader also lamented that when there is such a complaint against a politician, the issue of blown out of proportion and more publicity is given to them.

Afzal said even journalists were shocked at the incident and called for action into the incident.
