The victim, a resident of Nalasopara in Maharashtra’s Palghar district, was discovered late Tuesday night near Ram Mandir railway station in Goregaon. According to police, the young woman had traveled to Mumbai earlier that day by train.

Medical examinations conducted at a hospital revealed that foreign objects, including a surgical blade and stones, had been forcibly inserted into her private parts. Doctors promptly removed the items, and the woman is currently undergoing treatment. Her condition is reported to be stable.

Acting on her complaint, police registered a case of rape and launched an extensive search operation. On Friday, the accused autorickshaw driver was arrested.

The case has sparked outrage and calls for swift justice. Investigators are delving deeper into the incident to uncover further details and establish the sequence of events.

This disturbing incident underscores the urgent need for stronger measures to ensure women’s safety in public spaces and harsher penalties for perpetrators of such heinous crimes. Further updates on the case are awaited as the investigation continues.
