Mumbai: Constable Sunil Atmaram More brought disrepute to the police force in 2005 when he raped a minor girl while drunk inside a chowky at Marine Drive.
Five years later, another constable and his friend took advantage of a lonely girl of 20, and allegedly raped her at an isolated place in Manori.
The victim, who works as a telephone operator in Bandra, went to the Royal Smoke hookah parlour at SV Road in Goregaon late night on October 2 after an argument with her friend Sunny Singh. Dhananjay Madne, 23, a police constable attached to the local arms division, was in the parlour with his friend Arshad Ali, 21, a student, and Kritika, a Mira Road resident.
Unfazed by the threat, the victim narrated the incident to Singh and lodged a police complaint against the trio. The 20-year-old girl, who was allegedly raped by a police constable and his friend at a cottage in Manori, narrated to the police how the accused befriended her on finding her alone in a hookah parlour in Goregaon.
"She went to Royal Smoke parlour at SV Road in Goregaon (W) where Dhananjay Madne [the constable] and Arshad Ali were already present along with a friend, Kritika. The victim seemed depressed and on seeing her alone, Kritika approached her and asked her to join the group," said senior inspector Surendra Paithankar of the Goregaon police station.
They left in an autorickshaw. On reaching Gorai, the victim asked them about the location. Kritika then told her they had changed the plan and were on their way to Water Kingdom for a picnic. "When they reached the Manori village in Gorai around 7 am, they booked a cottage there. The victim told us that after entering in the cottage, Madne and Ali dragged her inside a room and raped her," Paithankar said.
The victim told the police that on October 6, Ali called her up several times and asked her to meet him. When she refused, Ali warned her of dire consequences. A scared victim then informed her boyfriend about the incident.
