Mumbai, June 13 (SocialNews.XYZ) Police in Maharashtra's Dongri arrested five accused within 24 hours of registering a case involving the alleged kidnapping, wrongful confinement, assault, and humiliation of a 33-year-old man over a financial dispute.
According to the police, the victim, identified as Sachin Ranpise (33), was held captive, threatened, and subjected to severe mental and physical torture over a loan of Rs 2 lakh. The victim was allegedly denied food and water for nearly 48 hours, beaten with a belt, and paraded naked as part of the abuse.
The incident took place in Mumbai’s Dongri area, where the victim was allegedly held hostage and tortured following a dispute related to the repayment of the loan.
Police said that Sachin had borrowed Rs 2 lakh from one of the accused some time ago. Due to financial difficulties, he was unable to repay the amount on time and had requested an extension. However, the accused allegedly insisted on immediate repayment and subsequently conspired to kidnap and torture him.
According to the complaint, Sachin was forcibly confined in Room No. 104 of the MM Residency Lodge, located near Baba Dargah in Dongri, between June 8 and June 10. During this period, he was allegedly deprived of food and water. The accused reportedly assaulted him repeatedly with a leather belt, causing injuries to his head, arms and back.
The complaint further stated that the accused subjected him to extreme humiliation by stripping him naked and forcing him to walk through the lodge corridor.
On June 11, the victim managed to escape and reached the Dongri Police Station, where he narrated his ordeal. Acting on his complaint and under the guidance of senior officers, the Crime Detection Team immediately launched an investigation.
Although the initial examination of CCTV footage did not provide conclusive evidence, the police, with the help of local intelligence inputs, traced the accused and laid a trap in the Mazgaon area. All five accused were subsequently apprehended.
The arrested individuals have been identified as Abdullah Shaukat Bhusari (21), Junaid Qaymuddin Khan (26), Mohammad Saad Pathan (26), Arafat Hasham Khanani (24), and Sahil Shaikh (25).
Police have also recovered items allegedly used in the commission of the crime from the accused.
Further investigation into the case is underway.
