Mumbai police arrested twenty-two-year-old Sidharth Sunil Bais from Chhattisgarh for allegedly drugging and molesting his college classmate during a party at Madh Island in Malad West.
The victim lost consciousness after consuming a drink spiked with an intoxicating substance. Taking advantage of her helpless condition, Bais allegedly molested her during the gathering.
After learning about the ordeal, the victim’s parents accompanied her to Juhu Police Station. Officers recorded her formal statement and initiated legal action against the accused student.
Malvani police registered a case under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections covering sexual assault and drugging. Authorities later transferred the investigation to Juhu Police via a Zero FIR.
A local court remanded Bais to five days of police custody. Investigators have also named another suspect, though officials continue evaluating his exact role in the crime.
In a separate incident from Powai, police arrested six men for gang-raping a fifteen-year-old minor. The attack occurred between October 27 and 28 on Saki Vihar Road.
The perpetrators lured the victim to a deserted plot behind a bakery. They sexually assaulted her and threatened to share her photos online if she reported the assault.
Police teams conducted rapid raids across various locations following the victim’s complaint. Officers successfully apprehended all six suspects within twenty-four hours of receiving the initial report.
