Karan Oberoi Rape Case: Police Nabs 4 People Who Attacked The Complainant

On May 25, Karan Oberoi’s rape case saw a new twist when the rape complainant in Karan Oberoi’s rape case was attacked by 2 bikers while she was jogging at Lokhandwala back road, Andheri (West). The complainant, who’s an astrologer by profession, had then headed to Oshiwara Police station where she lodged an FIR against the bikers. Reportedly, the two people, who arrived on a bike, slashed her right arm.

Now, the latest reports suggest that Police has now nabbed four people for attacking the complainant with a knife while she was out for a morning walk. But police indicates that there aren’t enough evidences that prove that the attack is linked to Karan Oberoi’s rape case.

A police officer told Mid-day, “The attackers were nabbed after a thorough investigation. So far there is no evidence that links the rape case with the attack on the astrologer. We are probing the matter to ascertain the facts and find out who planned the attack. After checking a number of CCTV footages, we traced the bike used in the incident to Mira Road and then arrested its owner Zeeshan Ahmed, 23."

Tabloid’s report further states, “Zeeshan's interrogation led the cops to his 21-year-old friend Arafat Ahmed, who was riding the bike. Following this, the pillion rider Jitin Santosh, 21, was nabbed from Santacuruz. Later, another accused, 22-year-old Altamash Ansari, was arrested for his involvement in the conspiracy.

The officer further told the Mid-day, "We are trying to find out who planned and executed the attack. More arrests in the matter likely.”
