Bengaluru: A 31-year-old man was arrested for allegedly raping a 71-year-old woman in Bengaluru after broking into her house.

The victim in her complaint said,”I heard the calling bell and found my neighbour on the first floor. When I asked him how he had entered my house, he told me the glass door had been broken, and he would get it repaired since he knows a carpenter. I went to the ground floor and found the door broken.”

“While I was examining the door, the man dragged me into a bedroom on the ground floor and sexually assaulted me. After the incident, I lost consciousness due to bleeding. I came to senses around 6 pm,” she said in the complaint.

Following the complaint, the police arrested the accused and registered a case of rape and house trespass against the accused.
