A Class 11 girl student was allegedly abducted and gangraped by three youth in R.K. Puram area of south Delhi, the police said on Monday.
The accused have been identified as Mohit Pal, the victim’s neighbour and friend, Sharad Kumar and Amit, the police said. The victim, who studies in a private school at
Chanakyapuri here, was taken by Mohit to a restaurant in south Delhi for lunch last Wednesday. “After lunch, Mohit asked her to come over to Sharad’s house in Mohammadpur where the three took turns to rape her,” a senior police official said.
The official said the accused threatened the girl not to tell anyone about the incident and dropped her at her Sector 6, R.K. Puram residence in evening. “When the girl reached home, she was so frightened that she didn’t tell her parents about her ordeal. However, the next day she mustered courage and narrated the incident to her parents who approached the police and a complaint was lodged,” the official said.
The girl was taken to AIIMS where a medical examination confirmed rape. “A manhunt was launched and the accused were arrested last Thursday. They are all residents of R.K. Puram and have been charged for gangrape and illegal confinement of the victim,” the official said.
Mohit told the police that he loves expensive motorcycles and the victim was “fascinated” by his life style.
“The two became friends and used to go out frequently. The father of the accused is also a government employee. All the accused are between 20 and 25 years of age and live in government quarters in Sector 6, R.K. Puram.
