This unmarried lady concerned is 37 years of age and over a marriage proposal advertisement in the newspaper had got to know this man  and within a space of 10 days' communication over the phone
ultimately laid the foundation for a brief love story with him.  What he had mentioned was that chatting over the phone was not sufficient and to meet each other and spend a day in each other's company. To this suggestion, the lady had given her consent. Her householders were of course unaware that she was to go on a journey of this nature and after coming t the town of Hatton on 31st Saturday had both engaged in romantic talk at a restaurant. Later, on he promise of marriage, the man had suggested to her of going to a lonely spot for a short time and had thus got into a three-wheeler with her.

Consequently, he had taken her to a lonely place at Gorky estate in Norwood area and had asked her not to worry because he had already promised to marry her after which he had offered her a beverage to drink. Having believed what she said, she had drunk the beverage given to her.

The victim, this lady said that she could not remember what happened after consuming the drink. What she said was that that drink contained something which made her lose her consciousness.

After sometime she had regained her consciousness to see that her hands and feet were tied up and the jewellery in her possession had been robbed by the suspect who then was nowhere in sight. According to the physical discomfort she experienced she came to realise that she had even been raped.

She however managed to untie the ropes on her feet with difficulty and after untying only that knot she had gone to a house nearby around 11 in the night and had informed the residents there about her plight. The householders had then informed Norwood police.

Norwood police who visited the scene had finally rescued her.

She revealed that she had not known the suspect before and that she had come to know him only across the phone.

The lady was directed for treatment to Dickoya Base Hospital.

This lady who works as a clerk in a leading Tamil school in Dickoya area was an unmarried female of 37 years.

Norwood police are conducting further inquiries on this incident.
