Vadodara: A 21-year-old woman living in Karjan was allegedly blackmailed and raped by two men from Bharuch.
The woman lodged an offence on Saturday as one of the accused Sapan alias Armaan Jamadar uploaded her photos by making a fake Instagram profile.
The woman told police that the other accused Moin Patel befriended her when she had visited a hospital in Bharuch around a year back.Patel talked with her on phone several times and promised her to get a job in a petrochemicals major in Dahej.
During one of the conversations Patel told the woman that he likes her and made a marriage proposal.
On May 31, Patel called her at a guest house in Karjan and had sexual relations with her by promising to marry her.
A few days later, Jamadar called the woman to tell her that he is aware of her relationship with Patel and also has their photos. Jamadar then started blackmailing her using the photos and allegedly raped her. Later, the woman switched off her phone so that neither of the two could contact her.
Jamadar then created the woman’s fake Instagram profile and shared her and Patel’s photos on it and sent them to the woman’s three sisters, brother and her friends. Police said that Jamadar and Patel had colluded with each other as the latter shared his photos with the woman so that she could be blackmailed.
The duo has been booked for rape, sexual harassment, assault and under Information Technology Act.
