A 19-year-old man was arrested in a joint operation by the Oshiwara and Bandra Police for allegedly raping a 17-year-old girl. Officers said that the survivor and her family approached the station to register an FIR against the accused, the police said. 

“According to the complainant, the accused sexually assaulted her from August to November, and she was three months pregnant at the time of filing the FIR. After the incident, the accused fled to his hometown located in Kashmir. The survivor was hesitant to complain and hence, approached the police station only on December 11,” said a police officer.
