Police on Sunday arrested a 25-year-old auto driver, who hails from Agra in Uttar Pradesh, for allegedly raping a 20-year-old passenger inside his vehicle in Aarey Colony. According to Aarey police sources, the survivor, a resident of a suburb in north Mumbai, received a call from her maternal aunt on June 17 to bring her phone and documents from her home in Belapur to the court she was at.
Leaving her three-month-old son with her husband, the victim retrieved the documents and phone and travelled to Belapur by train and then took an auto to Belapur court. Subsequently, the same auto driver who had dropped her off at Belapur court was instructed by her aunt to take her home in north Mumbai. The aunt took down the auto-rickshaw’s number and captured a photo on her mobile phone.
