In the latest development in the rape-murder case of the 25-year-old Vile Parle physiotherapist, cops have now received CCTV footage of a man trying to open the door of the victim&rsquo;s house. The man is plump looking, but neither the victim&rsquo;s family nor her neighbours are able to identify him.
According to a report in <a href="http://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/mumbai/crime/cops-obtain-cctv-footage-of-man-housebreaking-nobody-knows-who-he-is/articleshow/55971180.cms" target="_blank">Mumbai Mirror</a>, the footage was obtained from a bank near the victim&rsquo;s home. In it, a man is seen climbing the stairs, and trying to open her door. After that, he tries to open doors of the victim&rsquo;s neighbours&rsquo; houses as well. From his actions, cops feel he could be a housebreaker.

&ldquo;He does not seem to be residing in the same area and must have followed the victim from the ATM.

A nullah connects Vile Parle to Juhu and anyone can easily cross over it and escape,&rdquo; an officer from the investigating team told Mirror.
