According to report in DNA, he was harassing Sonarika since the last seven – eight months and has been identified as Swapnil Sahare.
Talking to the leading daily, Sonarika said, “He was repeatedly messaging me and calling me since 7-8 months. I was fed up and scared by seeing his messages. When I blocked his number he used other numbers to contact me. He used at least 25 numbers to contact me. When I switched off my phone for few days, he started calling my relatives and father. Initially, I ignored but in February I approached the police and filed a complaint.”
Assistant police Inspector of Kurar police Station, Suryakant Kharat said, “After registering the complaint we tracked him by using the tower location of Kurkheda. During interrogation he said he was in love with Bhandari and wanted to marry her,”
As per the report, Swapnil used software to get Sonarika’s number. Last year in October when he got her number, he started sending obscene, intimate messages to her. He was madly in love with the actress.
He was produced in court and remanded in police custody till May 1.
