The investigation into the alleged gang-rape of a woman in Bhiwandi has hit a new hurdle as the Digital Video Recorder (DVR) linked to the CCTV camera system at the property was not found. This has prompted the police to investigate the DVR's disappearance, the people who had access to it, and if it was removed after the incident.
Police are also trying to determine if the DVR's absence is linked to the woman's allegations. An FIR has been filed against former BJP MLA Narendra Pawar and a dismissed police officer, Shailesh Patil, following the woman's complaint. Both are currently on the run, as is the property's caretaker, Deva. The woman had reportedly approached Pawar over a dispute involving her husband.
She claims she was taken to a property in Bapgaon, threatened with a weapon and sexually assaulted. Patil is alleged to have sexually assaulted her after Pawar left. The police are examining the DVR and the circumstances surrounding its absence.
