Investigators said the victim, a resident of Ambernath, and the accused, from Kalyan (E), sell fruits, vegetables and stationery items on local trains and they got friendly due to their common profession.

On repeated questioning, the victim broke down and revealed that Ashok, on the pretext of repairing a mobile phone, took her to his friend's flat in Manpada and repeatedly raped her. In the police complaint, the victim's husband, said, "Before leaving for Pune for personal work, I decided to leave my wife at my friend Ashok's Kalyan residence. While leaving her, I bought her a mobile phone and got a prepaid SIM card. However, she was unable to operate it. When she asked Ashok to help her in activating it, he claimed that the phone had to be repaired and took her to Dombivli, where he raped her." Kolsewadi police assistant inspector I V Vishwakarma said they had booked Ashok for rape and his accomplice for aiding him in the crime. "The victim maintained silence for almost a week.
