PANAJI:
A local man was arrested on Tuesday for allegedly raping a 42-year-old foreign national while giving her a mud bath at Arambol beach in North Goa, police said.
“Joel D’Souza, 32, approached the victim, who was accompanied by her husband, and offered her a mud bath. Then he violated her while applying mud on her body,” Police Inspector Vikram Naik told IANS.
Police informed that the incident had taken place on June 2, however, a complaint was filed on June 6.
