The sole witness to the rape of a 22-year-old postgraduate student after being kidnapped from Fraser Town has received threat calls asking him to back off from giving evidence.

After receiving the calls, the witness, the male friend of the victim, approached Police Commissioner Raghavendra Auradkar, who directed an Assistant Commissioner of Police to register a case and investigate. "I have assured the victim and the witness of giving them security. I have directed the ACP to conduct a detailed investigation and take strict action," Mr. Auradkar said.

The official said the unknown caller warned the victim's friend not to cooperate with the police and also threatened him with dire consequences. "We are investigating where the call generated and how they (callers) managed to get the phone numbers of the victims," a senior police officer said.
