Mira-Bhayandar: In a horrifying incident which reflects disgrace to humanity, a 56-year-old man who allegedly owes allegiance to the Chotta Rajan gang was arrested by the central crime unit (CCU) attached to the Mira Bhayandar-Vasai Virar (MBVV) police for sexually exploiting his two daughters aged- 22 and 21 years at their residence in Nallasopara.
Less than 24 hours after an offence was registered against him the accused (name withheld to protect the identity of the survivors) was arrested by a team led by police inspector- Aviraj Kurhade from a village in Sindhudurg on Wednesday (26, February).

According to the police he also molested his two other minor daughters by forcing them to see porn videos. He would mount brutal assaults on his wife when she tried to intervene and stop him from sexually exploiting the girls.
