MUMBAI: A Vangaon resident has been arrested for allegedly raping a married woman, filming the act and blackmailing her into having sex with him for a year. The accused even sent the MMS clip to the victim's husband.

The accused, Dhananjay alias Bharat Wayda(29), and his accomplice, Anuradha Dhumal(24), both residents of Vire village at Vangaon in Dahanu have been sent to police custody till January 30.

In January last year, Dhumal invited her 24-year-old neighbour to Wayda's home. They offered her tea laced with sedatives, said the police, adding that after the victim fell unconscious, Wayda raped her while Dhumal filmed the act on a mobile. Wayda later blackmailed the victim with the clipping and raped her on several occasions. The woman bore the torture as the accused had threatened to circulate the images, the police said. In January this year, Wayda allegedly sent the video to his friends as well as the victim's husband. When the victim's husband asked Wayda to delete the clips, he allegedly demanded Rs 5 lakh.

The victim and her husband moved somewhere else, but Wayda continued to blackmail them. On January 23, he reportedly threatened to make the images public, when the couple went to the police. "We are ascertaining if Wayda is involved in a sex racket," said API Sunil Takavle.
