“After a while, there was a knock on the door,” the victim told the police. “When I opened it, I found the suspect standing outside. He entered the room, covered my mouth, and made me unconscious”.

The woman alleged that the suspect raped her while she was unconscious and then fled the scene. She further claimed to have found nail injuries on her body after regaining consciousness.
