PUNE, 23 March 2022
A grave accusation has come to light as Prathamesh Marne, the son of notorious gangster Gajanan Marne, faces a case filed against him at the Sinhagad Road Police Station in Pune.
The charges pertain to the alleged rape of a 22-year-old woman on multiple occasions spanning from August 2020 to March 2022.
The victim claims that Prathamesh Marne subjected her to repeated instances of sexual assault and recorded their encounters on video.
Furthermore, she asserts that he resorted to threats, coercing her to keep silent, lest he disseminate the incriminating videos across social media platforms.
Recent Political Affiliation
Recent events have witnessed both Prathamesh Marne and his mother affiliating themselves with the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) in Pune. Their formal induction into the party took place in the presence of NCP’s city president.
This development adds a layer of complexity to the unfolding case, potentially intertwining political dynamics with the criminal allegations.
Background of Marne Family
Gajanan Marne, the father of Prathamesh Marne, carries a history riddled with multiple criminal cases, predominantly encompassing serious bodily offenses.
This extensive criminal background led to his incarceration under the Maharashtra Prevention of Dangerous Activities (MPDA) act, resulting in his confinement to Nagpur jail.
Following a year-long period of detention under the MPDA act, Gajanan Marne was recently released from Nagpur jail.
As the legal proceedings unfold, the allegations against Prathamesh Marne underscore the intricate intersections between personal conduct, criminal associations, and political involvement.
Amidst the backdrop of these accusations, the public eye remains on the legal system’s response and the potential ramifications within the political arena.
