Three individuals, including two women, were arrested for allegedly extorting ₹20,000 from a tourist from Punjab in Goa’s Porvorim area, police reported on Sunday.
The suspects have been identified as Babita Ramesh Upadhyay from Mumbai, Sutapa Banerjee from West Bengal, and Deepak Salgaonkar, a local resident of Goa.
According to the police, the two women posed as members of an escort service and threatened the tourist, Sagar Ansari, with a false rape accusation if he did not pay them ₹20,000. Fearing the consequences, Ansari and his friend transferred the money into the bank account of the accused on August 30.
Following the complaint, police tracked down a car linked to Salgaonkar in Calangute, leading to the arrest of the two women from Anjuna. The investigation into the incident is ongoing as authorities work to gather more details.
