A man was booked for allegedly raping a 25-year-old Navi Mumbai resident repeatedly after blackmailing her, a police official said on Monday.
The woman works with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, while the man is a resident of Ahmednagar, the Kamote police station official said.
"As per the complaint, the man and woman developed friendship, after which he raped her several times between October 2022 and January this year," he said.
"He exploited her by threatening to defame her. We registered a rape case on Saturday but are yet to arrest the accused," the official added.
