New Delhi: A 32-year-old British national was arrested in Goa for sexually abusing a 20-year-youth. Police said, the victim had lodged a complaint with Colva police station on Tuesday that the Briton sexually abused him after promising a job in the UK.
Desmond Hope molested the youth in Margao town of south Goa after luring him with a job offer in a bank in London.
Cases of foreign nationals victimising naïve youth and luring them with job offers abroad are on the rise. In a separate incident a non-resident Indian allegedly raped his house help in Delhi last week and then fled to the US, police said on Monday.
Neeraj Gulati, who worked as software professional in the US, allegedly raped the 18-year-old maid at his house in Naraina Vihar in southwest Delhi on February 15, police said. The accused had come to India on February 6.
The victim alleged that Gulati raped her on February 15 and threatened her with dire consequences if she revealed anything about the incident. But she told her uncle who took her to Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital for medical examination and informed the police on Sunday.
The victim was recruited by a placement agency, RK Tirki Replacement, two months ago for domestic chores at Gulati's house. The accused, however, managed to flee the country on Sunday. He took a flight for Atlanta, US, from the Mumbai airport, a senior official said.
