A rape complaint filed by his alleged girlfriend, TV actor
Ahwaan Kumar was arrested by the Oshiwara police. A report in Mid-day quotes a
source as saying that Ahwaan lured the actress into a relationship under the
pretext of marrying her but asked her to abort the foetus when she told him
about her pregnancy and also ended the relationship soon after. The report
further states that the actress had tried to register a complaint on two
earlier occasions but the actor's industry friends threatened her with dire
consequences.
The report also states that the FIR report states that the
actress and Ahwaan had met on the sets of a television serial in 2011. Ahwaan
proposed to her and gradually, they entered into a relationship. On February
12, 2012, Ahwaan got her admitted to a nursing home in Andheri, where she
underwent the abortion. Hospital records have Ahwaan's name listed as her
'husband'. The complainant alleges in her statement that Ahwaan had promised to
marry her and also met her parents.
When she got pregnant and asked him to go for a court
marriage, he started threatening and torturing the actress. The actor also
forced her to abort the child and asked her to concentrate on her career
instead. Later, he informed her that since their kundalis (birth charts) did
not match, a marriage wasn't possible. When the actress started pressurising
him to marry her, he started abusing her as well as her family. On November 22,
2014, the Oshiwara police registered an FIR under sections 376 (rape) and 507
(criminal intimidation by an anonymous communication) of the Indian Penal Code
(IPC). In the report, Subhash Bele, senior police inspector of Oshiwara police
station, was quoted as saying that the accused was in their custody and they
were conducting a background check on the facts and records, and a proper
investigation would follow.
