"Yesterday, a woman Soni Sarsal (30) made a complaint at Bandra Police Station against Vinod Kambli and his wife Andrea that they had not allowed her to return home and wrongfully confined for three days when she asked them for the wages,” Mumbai Police spokesperson Dhananjay Kulkarni said.
“They would beat me and would not let me rest all day. They would abuse me. Kambli would slap me after getting drunk. He would wake me up in the middle of the night and ask me to serve him alcohol. They also took away my phone,” Soni told ANI.
She also accused Kambli of threatening to kill her.
“I thought of complaining earlier, but they would threaten to burn my house and to kill me,” she added.

An officer at Bandra Police Station said they may call Vinod and his wife after ascertaining a few missing links in her statement.
To a question whether they would issue a summon to the couple, he declined to comment.
