Nearly a week after a 34-year-old man was brutally assaulted and gangraped by five men in Vashi's Sagar Vihar park, CIDCO is finally putting up street lights in the area. Residents say this is the first time in 30 years that the body has taken an initiative to do something in this area.

The case, which has shocked even the local cops with its brutality, came to light when the survivor, on Monday night after the assault, managed to reach his family doctor's clinic. He is now being treated at Koparkhairane Gagangiri Multispeciality Hospital. When mid-day had visited the place earlier in the week, we found that while the watchman sits at the main gate of Sagar Vihar, one can easily enter through an open space near Jageshwar Temple. People park their bikes near the temple and walk into Sagar Vihar. Also, the compound and barricades are broken at a few places allowing easy access to the area.
