One person has been arrested in connection with the alleged sexual assault on a railway woman employee by a group of persons at her Railway quarters, a senior police official said on Saturday. The accused, Rajashekharan, a railway employee and son-in-law of the victim, was arrested on Friday night, Hubli-Dharwad Police Commissioner BA Padmanayan told PTI.
He has been remanded to police custody. "The accused has confessed to the crime but revealed that there were no other men involved in the crime," the police commissioner said. However, the victim, in her complaint, had alleged that a group of four to five masked men had barged into her quarters and sexually assaulted her.
Police have recovered a gold chain from the possession of Rajashekharan. The victim, a peon at the Hubli Division of the South-Western Railway, had alleged that one of the men had taken away the gold chain.
