Ghaziabad Police on Sunday arrested a man identified as Mintoo alias Sunil (42) for allegedly raping a 32-year-old doctor, who runs a clinic in a colony in Teela More police station area here.
Shalimar Garden ACP Siddhartha Gautam said that Sunil had visited the woman's clinic two years ago and befriended her.
The woman in her complaint to the police on Saturday said that Sunil had promised to marry her. On this pretext, Sunil sexually and financially exploited her, the ACP said, citing the complaint lodged by the woman.
