The victim came to India on a tourist VISA and on the day of the incident, four men offered her lift in their Accent car. “She told us that she had boarded the accused’s car in which she was gang-raped in South Delhi’s Saket area,” an official said. At around 2.45 am, they dumped her at DND flyover. She was spotted by a passerby in an unconscious state. When a police team reached the spot, they found injuries on her body. “A medical examination of the woman confirmed the sexual assault. She had also consumed alcohol. It is yet to ascertain that she was drunk before taking the lift or if she was forcibly made to consume alcohol,” the official added.
On Friday, the police also sought help from two translators and the woman’s statement was recorded at Mayur Vihar police station. The woman told the police that she knew three of the accused and was returning home after a party in Saket.
“She boarded the car from near PVR Anupam in Saket,” the officer added. A case of rape under Indian Penal Code has been filed but the investigators are also probing allegations made by the accused. On interrogation, the four claimed that the woman was a call girl and was framing them over a tiff about money.
