The crime bore similarity to the 2012 'Nirbhaya' gang-rape case of Delhi. The 45-year-old suspect, arrested within a few hours of the incident, was later charged with murder.
Mumbai: The Shiv Sena on Monday said the brutal rape and murder of a woman in Mumbai’s Sakinaka has shocked everyone, but Mumbai is still the "safest city" in the world for women and there should be no doubt about it in anyone's mind. An editorial in the Shiv Sena mouthpiece 'Saamana' said the recent incidents of crime against women in Maharashtra were a "blot" on the state's culture and the feeling of anger among people was justified. A 34-year-old woman was raped and brutalised with a rod by a man inside a stationary tempo in suburban Sakinaka in the wee hours of Friday. She died at a hospital during treatment in the early hours of Saturday, police earlier said.More Related News
