Chennai, February 9: Police have arrested four college students and launched a hunt for another student for allegedly raping a 19-year-old woman after spiking her drinks at a party. The arrested include the woman's boyfriend K Sivanandan (19) of Anakaputhur.

Police said Sivanandan, a first year hotel management student of a private college in the city, had taken the woman to a friend's place Sunday evening where she passed out after having drinks. He dropped her at her place Monday morning after he and his friends allegedly raped her. The woman, a salesgirl in a supermarket, has been admitted to a government hospital in Egmore with bleeding injuries. She is now stable, doctors said.

The incident came to light when the doctors treating her found signs of rape. They informed police on Tuesday. Following this, Sankar Nagar police inspector M Christopher got the woman's statement in the presence of the doctors. Joint commissioner of police (south zone) K P Shanmuga Rajeswaran said, "Sivanandan lured his girlfriend and took her to his friend Arvind Santhosh's house in Anakaputhur. The accused apparently spiked her drinks and raped her." The others arrested are Santhosh (19), an engineering student, Hariharan (19), a first year polytechnic student, and Deepan Kumar (18), a first year BTech student. A search is on for their friend Navin (19), a first year engineering student.

Palghar, Mar 7: Police have arrested a man for allegedly cheating several shopkeepers in Maharashtra's Thane, Pune and Nashik by making phone calls in a woman's voice, police said on Friday.

The accused, Shashikant Ambekar (42), a resident of Palghar, was arrested in the last week of February, they said.

"He used to note down the phone numbers mentioned on different shops and call the owners in a woman's voice to order some things from them. He would tell them that he had a Rs 2000 currency note and needed change," an official said.

"He would ask the shopkeepers to send smaller denomination notes for exchange. He would wait at the entrance of buildings and when the delivery man arrived, he used to tell that he was there on behalf of the ''caller woman''.

"He would then take the currency notes from the delivery man saying he would get the Rs 2,000 note from the woman. However, he would disappear from the scene," the official said.

Police have seized Rs 1,85,000 from the accused and found that so far he has committed 22 similar crimes in different parts of the state.
