Hotel manager rapes female guest, arrested
Gurgaon: The Gurgaon police has arrested a man working with a network of budget hotel rooms for allegedly raping a female guest at a hotel in Sector-45, an officer said on Thursday.
The police said the incident took place at Emaar Residency, where the 22-year-old woman and her husband were staying for the past month. The accused, Raghav, used to work as a demand manager at the hotel.
“The victim, in her complaint, said Raghav had informed her that they will have to shift rooms on Sunday. She asked him to wait until her husband returned from work,” said a senior police officer.
The woman said that she was not keeping well and suddenly lost consciousness. “At around 11.45 pm, Raghav barged into her room. When she regained her senses, she realised she had been raped. She called Raghav, who admitted to his crime after she threatened to approach the police,” the officer said. The couple later filed a rape complaint.
In a statement, OYO, a network of budget hotels, said: “We are deeply saddened by this unfortunate incident at Emaar Residency and will continue to extend our full support to the police in their probe.”
