Pune Rape Case: Man Posed As Deliver Agent, Asked For Pen, Entered House, Raped Girl, Left Her Unconscious, Clicked Selfie With Threatening Message Of Return; Here's The Timeline (Video)

In yet another case of rape in Pune, a 22-year-old woman was raped in her own apartment by a man posing as a delivery agent on Wednesday evening in Pune.

The rape has sent shockwaves across the city as it happened at a reasonable hour and inside the house of the survivor.

This comes just months after the shocking Swargate and Bopdev Ghat rape cases and just a few days after a minor was raped on Solapur Highway in the district.

Here's the concerning timeline of the event as shared by Pune Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone 5) Rajkumar Shinde:

The incident took place around 7.30 pm on Wednesday at a housing society in Kondhwa area of Maharashtra's Pune city.

• The man came to the victim's house posing as a courier delivery agent and gained entry.

• He asked for a pen to sign (a document), and as she turned her back to him, he entered the house, latched the door, and raped her.

• The accused also clicked a selfie on the victim's phone and left a message on it, warning her not to inform anyone about the crime as he had taken her pictures and would share them on social media.

• The victim, who works in a private firm, was alone in her apartment as her brother had gone out of town.

• The woman does not remember anything further as she regained consciousness around 8.30 pm.

• The woman then informed her relatives, and subsequently, police were alerted.

• There is a possibility that the accused used some substance to make her unconscious.

• The police are verifying if any spray was used. The face of the accused has been captured in one of the CCTV cameras in the area, and efforts are ongoing to trace him.

"Work is on to prepare a sketch of the suspect. We are also scanning the CCTV cameras in the housing society," said Shinde.

The woman was sent for a medical examination.

A case has been registered under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections 64 (punishment for rape), 77 (voyeurism) and 351(2) (criminal intimidation), the police added.
