The Rabale police have arrested two men on the charges of unnatural sex with another man at Airoli. The 32-year-old victim, a resident of Ghatkopar, was forced into the act after he failed to pay back their money.
The victim had registered a case with the Ghatkopar police. The case was transferred to the Rabale police following which Ramesh Dashrath Wagdhare (34) and Bhimashankar Arjun Takalkar (36) were arrested on Tuesday night. A search is on for the two other accused, Rajesh Chaurasia and Ram Nimbalkar.
“We are yet to meet the victim as he has been admitted to a hospital in Ghatkopar. As per the complaint, the victim was assaulted and tied up, and later forced to have unnatural sex. The amount of money involved can be confirmed only after we meet the victim,” said sub inspector Santosh Pimple of Rabale police station.
According to the police, the accused had given money to the victim as commission amount for helping them get a loan. Even after a few months, the accused had not got the loan following which they asked the victim to meet them at Airoli.
