The Vanrai police have arrested a Goregaon-based man for repeatedly raping a 24-year-old woman and his wife for filming the act every time and threatening her to make it viral on social media. The cops have also booked the accused woman's boyfriend, who is absconding, for sexually assaulting the survivor.

Police sources said the survivor is married but she doesn't stay with her husband due to some dispute between them. She is currently residing with her parents in Goregaon where even the accused couple lives. Last week when she visited the couple's house, they gave her some drinks, which she had and fainted. On regaining consciousness, the accused woman showed her a video of her husband raping her.
