City police have arrested a 21-year-old engineering student of information technology stream after a married woman from the neighbourhood accused him of rape on Sunday.
Amol Mendhe, the son of a supervisor in the agricultural department, allegedly raped Meenu (name changed) at knifepoint in her residence at Bhilgaon.
The culprit had once helped Meenu but started making advances later, which were rebuffed, leading to the rape.
Mendhe sneaked into the house when Meenu's husband Kumar, who is a civil contractor, was not at home. Police said Kumar had been recently released from jail a fortnight ago. He was jailed after attacking Mendhe with a sharp weapon in April. Police had slapped charges of attempt to murder against Kumar. This was the second time Kumar had been booked for roughing up Mendhe.
Police sources quoted Meenu as saying that Mendhe had developed an interest in her after he helped her once. Meenu and Kumar had a love marriage around four years ago. She left home one night with only some cash and belongings after a tiff with Kumar. She met Mendhe on the way and requested him to help her reach her parents' place at Indora. Later, she asked him to take her to a girls' hostel instead. Mendhe took her to a girls' hostel at Ravi Nagar and helped her get enrolled there.
Meenu says she realized her folly a couple of days later and asked husband to take her home. The couple had patched up after the incident.
However, Mendhe started making advances towards her. Police said he would frequently try to get close to Meenu and even sent her love letters. Meenu initially tried to avoid disclosing the matter to her husband, but Kumar sensed Mendhe's interest towards Meenu. He decided to teach Mendhe a lesson and stabbed him, but was sent to jail after Mendhe complained to the police.
Mendhe fled after he forcing himself upon Meenu. She approached Yashodhara Nagar police station along with a neighbour. The police were initially reluctant to take a complaint but her persistence left them with no options.
A senior officer said that, considering the circumstances, police will have to verify the incident before taking action against the culprit. A source at Yashodhara Nagar police station said Mendhe alleged he was being framed by the couple as revenge for complaining to police against Kumar in the past.
Mendhe was placed under arrest and produced in court. He has been remanded till July 27.
