Abhishek Porel, identified by multiple outlets as an IPL cricketer from Bengal, is arrested on rape charges. Both reports say he is taken into custody by Mogra police and is expected to be produced before a court in Chinsurah later on Tuesday.
The two accounts align on the central timeline and authorities involved. The Hindu specifies that the arrest happens late on Monday night (August 10, 2026), while Times of India refers more generally to his arrest by Mogra police and notes the court appearance is expected on Tuesday (August 11, 2026).
