NEW DELHI: A 20-year-old woman working with a placement agency was allegedly gang raped by two persons in the Subhash Place area of northwest Delhi. One person has been arrested while a hunt is on for the other accused, police said.

The incident took place on Saturday night when accused Amit Kumar, 19, called the woman on the pretext of some work to his friend's house, police said. One of Amit's friends was already present in the house. Having confined her to a room, they took turns to rape her, police said. They threatened the woman with dire consequences if she dared to inform cops about the incident.

The woman, however, approached police after the incident. "A medical examination of the woman was conducted at Babu Jagjivan Ram Hospital wherein sexual assault was confirmed. A case on charges of gang rape, taking hostage and threatening someone with dire consequences was registered against Amit and his friend," said a police officer.

Amit was nabbed in a raid at his residence by cops. His friend, though, managed to give cops the slip, police added.
