VIJAYAWADA: Three software engineers, who graduated from NRI Engineering College at Agiripalli in Krishna district of Andhra Pradesh, have been arrested on Saturday for allegedly raping their BTech batchmate in 2017. They have been additionally booked for stalking and blackmail.
The accused -- Krishna Vamshi, 24, Siva Reddy, 23, and Dodla Praveen, 25 -- have been arrested in Vijayawada, the place they have been holed up.
“We booked instances against them, recovered phones and sent them for analysis. Meanwhile, all accused have been produced prior to the district courtroom and sent on judicial remand,” Hanuman Junction inspector YVL Naidu told TOI.
The accused had spiked their batchmate’s drink all through a party in a lodge at Agiripalli in February 2017, raped her and filmed the heinous act.
The police stated the girl was once in her ultimate yr of BTech when the incident came about, but the school management attempted to hush it up and allegedly settled the subject by reaching an ‘working out’ that the accused would delete the entire footage and videos of the girl.
However, two months ago, Praveen began blackmailing her, challenging sexual favours and cash. The accused demanded Rs 10 lakh from the survivor, who was once slated to get married quickly, and threatened to make the videos public if she didn't oblige.
Cops stated the trio created a WhatsApp staff and shared the video. The survivor’s father alleged in his police grievance that the video was once shared in other groups as neatly. Based at the grievance lodged by the girl’s father, cops registered a case below IPC Sections 376-B (gangrape) and 354A (outraging the modesty of a lady), and 67 of IT Act.
Praveen was once named as the primary accused as he was once the one who began pestering the survivor to sleep with him two months ago and circulated the video, which was once believed to have been deleted.
