According to the complainant, their neighbour Kundan Ashte, who is also an engineer and works at an IT firm in Hinjewadi, had been taking videos of her physical relationship with her husband.

As per the complainant, the accused had been taking the couple’s videos for the last three months. The complainant lodged a FIR with Hinjewadi police. The accused absconded when he learnt that she had filed a FIR against him. But we will soon arrest him.
