The case is linked to a complaint filed by a woman at the Civil Lines police station in Delhi. She alleged that Kapoor assaulted her inside a bathroom during a house party in Delhi in the second week of August. An FIR was registered on August 11, after which the police began searching for him.

Officials also said that the woman had named some other individuals in her initial complaint but later changed parts of her statement. The initial complaint alleged that Kapoor, along with unidentified men, had raped the woman.

However, she later revised her statement, accusing only Kapoor of rape. Police added that they are also taking legal opinion on the matter. Meanwhile, an investigation is underway, and the police are probing the matter from all possible angles. (ANI)
