On November 15, 2011 Mid-Day reported that "Please take me home," pleaded the 14-year-old girl, weeping uncontrollably, when Mumbai police officers rescued her from a Goa hotel. The Kandivli girl had been rescued a month after she was kidnapped, and then raped repeatedly by her 24-year-old neighbour. Crime Branch officers also arrested the girl's two kidnappers and brought them to the city last afternoon. They revealed that the rapist, identified as Manish Khanulkar, had also stolen a large amount of cash from the girl, and used it to check into various hotels over a period of 30 days, on the way to Goa from Mumbai. At each of the hotels, he raped her repeatedly.
