Three days before raksha bandhan, a boy brutally raped and murdered a Std VIII student, who used to tie him a rakhi. Bhiwandi police arrested the 20-year-old boy who had even called her father after killing her, to say that his daughter was not feeling well and was behaving weirdly. He then fled the spot. This is the second brutal rape and murder registered in Bhiwandi in the past three months.
