But on one such incident she slapped him and raised alarm when he tried to molest her, on October 09.

A couple of days later, on October 11, she was on her way to the bank, to encash her uncle’s cheque of Rs. 1.65 lakhs. Manish thought that this was the right moment and way laid her, with a reason that he regretted for his last attempt. The girl was just talking to him and reached the road end when Manish’s friend Parmar (26), auto driver brought his vehicle and pulled her inside the vehicle and the friends sped away with the girl. From then on till a day before, it was real torture to the young girl. Who was repeatedly raped by the victim at various hotels from Mumbai to Goa. The entire cheque amount was utilized for hotel payments by the victim. The men also sold the girl's gold chain for Rs 18,000 to pay for the rest of the bills.

Subsequently the uncle of the girl complained about her missing and also expressed that Manish was also missing since then. The efficient police tracked down the accused using his mobile phone and arrested him at Goa. Crime Branch officers also arrested the girl's two kidnappers and brought them to the city.

The victim could only say `Please take me home!!’

Senior Police Inspector Dalvi said that after the girl slowly recovered from the shock informed that Khanulkar had also raped another girl in her building last year, but her parents had shied away from registering a police complaint, and instead, left the locality. The victim was scared that Khanulkar would kill her uncle and grandmother, so she did not try to contact anybody.
