MAN HELD FOR THREATENING MARATHI FILM ACTRESS WITH SEXUAL ASSAULT | 22 October, 2020

A 28-year-old man was arrested from Ahmednagar on 19th October for allegedly threatening a Marathi film actress with sexual assault and murder by calling her up at her Bombay home earlier this month. The man, Sandeep Wagh, had earlier, too, pestered the actress on phone in a similar manner.

On October 4, the man telephoned the actress and asked her if she would attend a birthday party. Wagh started talking in a suggestive manner when she quoted a price for making an appearance. He also threatened to frame the actress in a drugs case. Wagh had also threatened the actress’ brother. He was booked for sexual harassment by the Oshiwara police station in Bombay and was sent to police custody.
