The question of women's safety has been started rasing in Bangaluru under the Karnataka government, as the police have arrested Mubarak Khan for sexually assaulting and murdering an unidentified woman near an under-construction building in Shanthinagar in central Bengaluru.
The suspect picked up the woman at midnight on February 20 near KR Market, a police officer said. “He didn’t know her and had no idea about her identity. He had picked her up in his auto with her consent but things changed after that.”
According to the officer, Khan took her to an under-construction building with her consent. After several hours the woman started to oppose him but he kept assaulting her sexually. When the woman said she would go to the police, he allegedly pushed her from the first floor of the building located near the double road around 4 am.
The body was found by a passerby at around 11 am. Police reached the location and found that she had head injuries but had no marks on her body.

Initially, the case was taken up as an Unnatural Death Report (UDR). However, the medical examination confirmed that the victim was raped which prompted the police to probe further.
The investigators analysed the CCTV cameras and gathered the network dump which led them to the accused Mubarak Khan. According to the Police officials, the accused had confessed to killing her. He allegedly chickened when she threatened to tell police and pushed her in the spur of the moment.
