"@Thane_R_Police look into the matter immediately. @neelamgorhe ji, the police will soon take strict action. Nowhere in the state atrocities against women will be tolerated," the minister tweeted.
A 27-year-old attendant at the COVID-19 quarantine centre in Thane district was arrested for allegedly raping a woman there in June.
The incident, however, came to light on Saturday when the 20-year-old victim lodged a complaint with Navghar police station, police inspector Sampat Patil said.
"The woman said she was raped when she was attending to a 11-year-old relative at the centre," said the inspector.
