A 26-year-old dancer was allegedly kept hostage for three days and raped by a man in his flat, police said on Sunday.
The accused was identified as Vinay Gupta, an event manager by profession, they said.
According to police, Gupta had contacted the victim, a native of Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad, who works as a dancer, for an event in Agra.
On October 8, Gupta took the complainant to his residence, where his wife served her sedated tea, after which the woman fell unconscious.
