Khar resident's stalker allegedly kissed, molested her after barging into her home when her husband was away
A chance encounter with a stranger during a New Year party proved costly for a 26-year-old Khar resident.
Rehman Shaikh (28) began stalking Pinky (name changed) after the party and even sent her obscene messages.
Things came to a head on Sunday, however, when Shaikh allegedly barged into Pinky's house and kissed and molested her.

The Oshiwara police arrested Shaikh yesterday. According to the police, Pinky and her husband had attended a New Year party in Bandra organised by one Rakesh.
While her husband was busy with his friends at the party, Pinky was introduced to Shaikh by the host.
The duo exchanged mobile numbers out of courtesy and then started chatting with their respective friends. A few days later, Pinky began receiving obscene messages from Shaikh.
"He used to send messages like 'Will you come and stay with me overnight? You are beautiful and I have begun loving you'.
I could not tell my husband about it as I feared he would misunderstand me. I then asked Shaikh to stop sending me messages but he paid no heed," said Pinky.
On Sunday, Shaikh allegedly forcibly entered Pinky's home while her husband was away and began kissing her violently. "He assaulted me and tried to rape me," said Pinky.
While Shaikh fled, a shaken Pinky confided in her husband, who approached the Oshiwara police and registered a case. "I suspect that Rakesh was helping Shaikh stalk me," added the victim.
ACP (West region) Amitabh Gupta confirmed the arrest but refused to give more details.
