In a startling turn of events, Pune police have revealed that the man accused of raping a 22-year-old techie was not a stranger, but someone known to her for years. Contrary to the initial claim that the attacker posed as a delivery executive, the police have stated that the woman and the accused were friends from the same community and had known each other for quite some time.

What the Woman Alleged

Earlier this week, the young tech professional filed a police complaint alleging that:

A man posing as a delivery executive arrived at her rented apartment in Pune.

When she refused the package, he allegedly insisted that her signature was needed.

She said he forcibly entered the flat after she opened the safety door.

She claimed the man sexually assaulted her, and she later regained consciousness after he left.

She also told police the accused clicked a selfie on her phone and left a threatening message, stating he would leak her photos online if she reported the incident.

What the Police Found

Following an investigation, Pune Police Commissioner Amitesh Kumar revealed:

The accused and the woman were known to each other for a couple of years.

The selfie that was allegedly taken by the accused was actually taken by the woman herself.

The threatening message (“I’ll be back”) was also typed by the woman.

The man detained is a highly qualified professional, not someone posing as a delivery agent.

The police are now investigating why the woman made the rape allegation, and they believe her mental state may not be stable at this point.

“The rape part is still under investigation,” said the Commissioner, adding that they are being cautious given the woman’s current psychological condition.

Ongoing Investigation

While police have arrested the man for questioning, they have clarified that no final conclusion has been drawn yet regarding the alleged sexual assault. The case is sensitive and is being handled with care, especially considering the mental health of the woman involved.
