The woman’s husband had odd working hours and after becoming good colleagues, she shared the details with the accused. The accused then started taking advantage and went to her house when she was alone and forcefully raped her.

A police officer said, “The woman feared that he’d disclose their intimate pictures in the office as he was threatening her. Hence, she didn’t tell anyone about the same. On Friday, she came and complained about the repeated sexual assault. We arrested the accused immediately under IPC Section 376.”
