Gangrape: US woman unsatisfied with probe, ready to come

The US national, who was allegedly gangraped in a five-star hotel in Connaught Place here in April, says she isn’t quite satisfied with the probe and is willing to come down to the country to join the investigation, despite the “nightmarish” experience. The 25-year-old, who works as a teaching aide in US, claimed she was drugged by the accused for several days and it was only later she could recollect the details of the incident. 

After returning, “It was around end of July 2016 that I started to remember what happened to me in India. I would get panic attacks, nightmares and anxiety,” she said. After she came to terms with the incident, the 25-year-old contacted an NGO that sent an email to Delhi Police on October 5. The victim has spoken to a female police officer a couple of times on phone along with her lawyer but says that she is not satisfied with the pace of investigation. The victim said that she is trying to arrange financial assistance for coming to India and the US Embassy in Delhi and some NGOs in the US are helping her in this regard while her family has been providing the much-needed moral and emotional support.
