A man has been arrested for allegedly raping a woman near Titwala railway station.
According to the police, the woman was walking along the railway tracks near Titwala railway station on Monday night when the accused pulled her into the bushes and allegedly raped her.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Manoj Patil said, "The accused also warned her of dire consequences if she approached police."
The woman narrated the incident to her husband who lodged a complaint with Kalyan Government Railway Police.
"The police acted swiftly and arrested Nishant Chavan, the suspect," the ACP added.
A further probe into the case is on.
Meanwhile, in Thane, a 16-year-old teenager has been arrested in Thane for allegedly murdering his girlfriend while his father, also an accused in the case, is absconding.
"On October 27, the body of an unidentified woman aged around 25 was found near the railway tracks near Haji Malang Hills," said senior inspector Anil Jagtap of Hill Line police station.
"The victim, strangulated with a rope, was identified as a 22-year-old woman from Ulhasnagar," the police official further added.
As per the probe into the matter, the minor was in a relationship with the woman but his family was opposed to it as she belonged to a so-called lower caste.
"The 16-year-old accused, his father, and another person allegedly killed her following a dispute on October 25," the police official said.
"While the minor and his accomplice were arrested from Bihar on November 7, his father was still on the run. A further probe was on," the cop added.
