Jalgaon : Union Minister Raksha Khadse has expressed deep anguish over the revelations in the Pune rave party case linked to Pranjal Khewalkar. Without naming individuals, she said the incident is “painful” and refrained from making detailed comments until the complete truth is brought to light.
Khadse also criticised the politicisation of the matter, urging leaders to prioritise development work over political disputes.
According to police investigations, shocking evidence was recovered from Khewalkar’s mobile phone — including 1,749 videos and photos, with 234 obscene images and 19 explicit videos. The material reportedly depicts sexual assault, drugging, and blackmail of women. Authorities suspect the involvement of a wider network operating in areas like Lonavala, Goa, Sakinaka, and Jalgaon, possibly linked to human trafficking.
