A suspended police constable who had reinvented himself as a spiritual guru has been apprehended by the Kalwa police. Gokul Jadhav and his son Anirudh, 21, were taken into custody earlier this month in connection with a rape case. The incident reportedly occurred between January 2021 and June 2023.
The survivor, in her detailed statement to the police, said, “Eight days before our wedding, my husband and I went to purchase jewellery, where we were introduced to Jadhav—an acquaintance of my husband. He invited us to his residence in Vitawa, Thane, and offered us gold from a box but I declined to accept. He then introduced me to his wife, son and daughter, given their acquaintance with my husband.”
