Singh admitted that he removed Ghurde’s clothes and tied her to the bed, then proceeded to show her three porn clips on his phone before sexually assaulting her. He added that he wanted revenge after she got him fired for stealing her umbrella in August. To strengthen their case against him, cops are waiting for the viscera report.
