Mind Link and Telepathic Mind Control

[BoloOfEarth]

I see under Mind Link that a character with Telepathy can eavesdrop on Mind Linked conversations - would that work in reverse?  If a character is part of a Mind Link, and a foe hits that target with a Telepathic Mind Control, would other people Mind Linked to that character automatically hear the telepathic command given to the targeted character?  Or can the Mind Controller exclude the others from his "conversation" with the target?

As a default answer, yes — sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander. However, mental powers are a tricky thing, so the GM might prefer to rule otherwise. Or he might require the character using Mind Control to succeed with an EGO Roll to “hide” his use of Mind Control from the “eavesdroppers” in the Mind Link.
