A case of rape has been registered against the managing editor of a Hindi news channel at the Tughlak road police station. The victim alleged that she met the accused Umesh Kumar when she was working at a gymnasium. 
Kumar had offered her a job for the Post of a vice president in his company. In April, 2017, she joined at the said post in the organisation.

In June last year, he called her at his residence and raped her on the pretext of marriage. This continued for quite some time. Then, in August, she was invited to a five-star hotel in Lutyen's Delhi, where she was sexually assaulted again on the same pretext.

She was informed much later that Kumar is a married man and has two kids. Heated arguments between the two followed, and the accused even gave he money to keep the relation a secret.

The victim has their chats saved in her mobile phone.

She filed a complaint on February 13, after which a medical examination of the accused was conducted on February 16. A case under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) was registered, too.

The hotel authorities have confirmed the stay of the accused at the hotel as a booking in his name has been found.
