Two persons, arrested for allegedly raping a five-year-old girl in east Delhi, have been sent to judicial custody till 23 May by a court here. Additional sessions judge Sanjay Garg extended the remand of 22-year-old Manoj Sah and 19-year-old Pradeep when they were produced before him after expiry of their judicial custody.
Both Manoj and Pradeep are accused of raping the minor girl on 15 April in the same building in east Delhi’s Gandhi Nagar where the girl and the accused lived. The girl was rescued 40 hours later on 17 April.
The Delhi police had earlier taken the custody of main accused Manoj for confronting him with Pradeep to know the sequence of events and for taking him to his native place in Muzzafarpur in Bihar to recover ‘blood-stained clothes’ which he was wearing at the time the crime was committed.
Investigators had also told the court that during interrogation, they had recovered the duo's mobile phones.
