Earlier, the police had recorded the statements of the complainant under section 161 of CrPC and had examined some witnesses.
However, alleging police inaction, the journalist last week had staged a dharna in front of the Purighat police station demanding justice.
Taking forward the investigation, the police on Tuesday recorded the statements of the victim before the Cuttack Sadar sub-divisional judicial magistrate (SDJM) under section 164 of CrPC.
Cuttack DCP Akhileswar Singh told reporters that the investigation in the case is now in the final stage.
