Bengaluru: A man has allegedly raped a woman working as a domestic help in a private company in Bengaluru's Embassy Tech Park.

The woman has filed a complaint against Mohan Babu, 27, who has now been arrested by the police.

The victim was working for one-and-a-half-years in a private company in Embassy Tech Park at Devarabeesanahalli, where the accused Babu was working as the manager to the domestic helps at the Embassy Tech Park. He hails from Andhra Pradesh and was a resident of Marathalli. 

On October 5, accused Babu asked the victim to clean the toilets at 1.30 PM. Considering it an emergency, victim went inside the toilet, followed by Babu. He forcibly entered the restroom and closed the door.

He chose lunch break so no one was around. He closed her mouth and allegedly raped her. Scared of the repercussions, if she made it public, the victim returned home without telling anyone about it.

But she couldn't gather courage to return to office and stayed at home. She did not even disclose the matter to her husband. When she did not go to work for more than a week, her husband pestered her to tell the reason.

It is then that she revealed that she was sexually harassed by the manager for the domestic helps at the company. It is also said that many workers have faced similar situation, but did not dare to make it public.

On the husband's assurance, this victim went to the police station and filed a complaint against Babu, who is now in judicial custody.
