Following the incident, the woman filed a complaint to the nearby police station against the accused, identified as Navin Kumar Singh. Based on the complaint, he was detained by the police.

The victim told reporters, “Yesterday between 9:45-10 pm I was getting ready to sleep when I heard someone knocking on the door of my room aggressively. He asked me to open the door immediately which made me feel a bit afraid. As I didn’t open the door, he broke it and entered. After entering my room, he started to abuse and assault me. I somehow managed to escape from him and informed his father, who was the owner of the hotel I was staying in. He asked me to inform the police immediately about the incident.”
