NEW DELHI: A man has been arrested for allegedly raping an 18-year-old girl in a DDA flat in Kalkaji on June 4. "The girl from Patna was brought to Delhi about two months ago by an acquaintance, identified as Tamijuddin, on the pretext of getting her a job as a domestic help at Shipra Mall in Anand Vihar.
"On June 4, his relative Aalam (40) brought her to his rented house in Kalkaji.
A drunk Aalam then sent his family out to purchase vegetables and raped the girl. He also beat her up and threatened her not to disclose the matter.
