A woman police officer in Mumbai has lodged an FIR against a man claiming to be a banking professional for allegedly raping her under the pretext of marriage, an official said on Sunday. In the FIR filed with the Powai police in the city on Friday, the victim, an Assistant Police Inspector (API), also named two more persons for threatening and blackmailing her in connection with the crime.


"The main accused hails from Aurangabad and claims to be a banking professional. He came in contact with the woman police officer through a social networking site and eventually they entered into a relationship. The accused allegedly captured his intimate videos with the victim and later started harassing and blackmailing her," the official said quoting the FIR.
