Thane (Maharashtra): Police on Saturday said a 24-year-old woman was allegedly gangraped repeatedly by two persons in 2016. One of the accused Shiv Verma (33), who runs a private coaching class, had called the victim on pretext of giving her a job in June 2016, said Assistant Police Inspector D N Sonawane of Khadakpada police station in Kalyan division.
