Pune, October 21: A doctor in Pune was arrested yesterday on the charges of rape. He allegedly raped the woman, who was known to him, after convincing her to bring her sick father to a hospital in the city.

Dr. Mangesh Gajakosh, 29, was recently appointed as a resident doctor by the state-run Kamgar Hospital in IDC in suburban Mumbai. He met the 22-year-old woman in Pune in 2011 and they both remained in touch through a social networking website.
