Jodhpur police have disclosed the arrest of two people in Mumbai in an investigation into alleged sexual blackmail linked to online work-from-home offers. ABP’s Jodhpur correspondent, NDTV Rajasthan and Hindusthan Samachar reported the police account on October 1. This report dates that disclosure; the underlying complaint and alleged assault are older.
Police allege that employment advertisements were used to obtain private material, followed by threats, demands for money and sexual assault. ABP places the complaint on August 31, 2026, and an alleged rape described in it on December 11, 2025. Those dates concern the underlying case and must not be confused with the October update.
Investigators say examination of phones found material relating to roughly thirty women and more than two hundred employment profiles. These are police descriptions of alleged recovered material, not a verified count of rape survivors. No substantive defence response or new judicial remand order was found in the checked accounts. The complainant’s identity, locality and private material are withheld, and the allegations remain subject to investigation and court scrutiny.
