इस केस को शक्ति मिल केस के नाम से भी जाना जा रहा है. ये काण्ड एक इंग्लिश
पत्रिका की फोटो जर्नलिस्ट पर पांच युवकों द्वारा किया गया था. इन पांच लोगों में
से एक नाबालिग है. शक्ति मिल एक खँडहर है जो की दक्षिणी मुंबई के महालक्ष्मी
इलाके में है. पीडिता उसे दिन अपने एक सहकर्मी के साथ एक असाइनमेंट पर गई थी.
दोषियों ने पहले तो उसके सहकर्मी को बेल्ट से मारा उसके बाद बेल्ट से ही बांध कर
पीडिता के साथ दुष्कर्म किया.
जब उसके साथ दुष्कर्म हो रहा था उसी समय उसके मोबाइल फ़ोन पर उसकी माँ की कॉल भी
आरही थी. दोषियों ने पहले तो उस पर दबाव दल की वो बोल दे की सब कुछ ठीक है मगर
अगली बार फिर से कॉल आने पर उससे मोबाइल छीन कर उसे ऑफ कर दिया.
बियर की एक टूटी बोतल से उनलोगों ने पीडिता को धमकाया की अगर उसने ज़रा सी भी आवाज़
निकाली तो ये बोलत उसकी गर्दन में घुसेड देंगे. इस दौरान उसके कुछ फोटो भी लिए गए
और उसको धमकाया गया की अगर पुलिस को कुछ भी बताया तो ये फोटोज इन्टरनेट पर डाल दी
जाएँगी.
लड़की के साथ दुष्कर्म करने के बाद वो उसे उसके सहकर्मी के पास वापस ले आये और फिर
दोनों को पकड़ कर रेलवे ट्रैक के पास ले गए. वहां ले जाने के बाद उन दोनो
महालक्ष्मी स्टेशन की तरफ जाने को कहा और पाँचों लोग लोअर परेल की तरफ बढ़ गए. दूर
जाने के बाद दोनों ने अपने बाकी सहकर्मियों से बोल कर अपने बॉस को फ़ोन किया और
बताया की उसके साथ सामूहिक बलात्कार हुआ है. सहकर्मियों के आने के बाद दोनों को
जसलोक हॉस्पिटल ले जाया गया जहाँ पर पीडिता ने सारी आपबीती डॉक्टर को सुनाई. उसकी
माँ को भी अस्पताल बुला लिया गया. उनका इलाज तुरंत शुरू हो गया.
