NYPD detectives are expected to fly to Los Angeles next week to interview women, including Lauren Sivan, regarding their claims against disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, sources told the Daily News.

Sivan, a former TV news anchor at Long Island 12, says Weinstein cornered her in a New York restaurant in 2007 and forced her to watch him pleasure himself.

Since the Weinstein scandal broke, city cops have opened two investigat­ions, including one for a 2004 incident in which aspiring actress Lucia Evans accused him of forcing her to perform a sex act in his Tribeca office.

The other focuses on an incident in which Weinstein allegedly committed a forcible sex act on a woman more than 10 years ago, police sources said.
