Nagpur : An IPS officer has been booked in Nagpur for allegedly raping a 28-year-old woman doctor after falsely promising to marry her, police confirmed on Sunday.
The woman filed the complaint at Imamwada Police Station on April 11. According to her statement, she and the accused connected on Instagram in November 2022. At the time, the man was preparing for the UPSC exams, while she was pursuing her MBBS.
