Chakankar stated that the target without delay signed up an issue at Swargate Police Station about the Pune rape situation, after which speedy activity was taken by the authorities. She additionally mentioned that the implicated is anticipated to be detained within the following 2 to 3 days.
Speaking to ANI, Chakankar stated, “The incident that took place at Swargate depot is very unfortunate. The victim registered a complaint at Swargate PS and quick action was taken by the police. The accused will be arrested in the next 2-3 days, but I feel after such an incident takes place, we hold candle marches, the news coming on the front page gradually shifts to the last page, and then we forget it.”
“I think women should be taught self-defence and they should stay aware at all times…State Commission for Women has ordered that quick and strict action should be taken against him,” she included, reported ANI.
Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar criticised the BJP federal government declaring that order is falling down in the state.
“This incident is shameful for Maharashtra. Law and order have been shattered in Maharashtra. Such incidents are increasing everywhere… There is no law and order left in Maharashtra. People have lost faith in the police department and the home department… The Chief Minister should pay attention to this, this is our demand from him,” he informed ANI.
Meanwhile, on Wednesday, the Pune Police had actually released a manhunt for a male implicated of raping a 26-year-old female near a parked bus inSwargate The implicated, determined as Dattatray Ramdas Gade, is presently making off, and initiatives are underway to map him, authorities stated.
According to Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone 2) Smarthana Patil, the Pune rape situation happened on Monday early morning when the target, a functioning female, was waiting on a bus to return home.
The implicated apparently approached her, incorrectly asserting that the bus to her location was parked in other places. He after that led her to a parked bus, where he apparently dedicated the criminal activity.
Zone 2, DCP Smarthana Patil stated, “A working woman was waiting for the bus to go back to her home…A man came and said that the bus to your place had been parked somewhere else and took the woman near the parked bus…Then, the man raped the woman,” reported ANI.
“A complaint has been registered…We have identified the accused, and we are making all the efforts to nab him. The accused is identified as Dattatray Ramdas Gade. The victim is stable right now…,” she stated.
