The Shil-Daighar police in Thane have arrested three men for allegedly raping and murdering a 30-year-old woman. The woman had left her house after a quarrel with her husband and took refuge in the temple. The police believe that woman may have visited the temple in the past however, on that fateful day she was alone.
The three accused including a priest of the temple with an intention to take advantage of her vulnerability laced her tea with marijuana. As the woman became intoxicated and not in a state to resist them, the three men allegedly raped her. When the effects of the drug wore off in the morning, she questioned them about the sexual assault that she was aware of but couldn’t resist. To prevent the woman from approaching the police, the men strangled her and dumped her body in the temple’s vicinity which happens to be a hilly area.
