The woman also alleged that he threatened her that he had filmed the act and would show it to her husband and upload it online. He then proceeded to rape her on two more occasions at his second residence in Malvani.
MIDC Police sources say that Hasan has been eyeing the woman since December last year and approached her with the partnership offer in January, but was turned down by her husband, who said that doing a door-to-door sales job would be difficult since they had a 3-year-old child. After this, the Hasan decided to approach her alone.

Furthermore, cops will also record the statements of hotel staff and residents around the Malvani home.
