Apart from all the examples I have shared, these are also some leads I did not pursue—of managers in garment factories in Bengaluru who demanded ‘sexual favours’ from workers to release their wages, as was revealed during #MeTooIndia310. And stories from sources—of moneylenders in villages in Telangana who demanded ‘sexual favours’ from the wives and/or daughters of those they lent money to; bureaucrats and ministers raping children in remand homes and orphanages in rural Maharashtra; and of a man who raped his girlfriend’s friend who had approached him for a loan when in dire straits.
