Police in Delhi arrested four men on
Friday in connection with the alleged
gangrape of a Nigerian woman in a
moving car, the latest in a series of sex
attacks in the Indian capital.
The 35-year-old, who has been staying in
India on a tourist visa, told police the
men kidnapped her after midnight on
Friday morning outside a popular
shopping mall in New Delhi’s Saket area
before bundling her into a car.
They then drove for around half an hour,
during which time the alleged gangrape
took place, before pushing her out of the
vehicle.
The woman, who cannot be named, was
finally rescued after a passerby spotted
her on the side of the road in Mayur
Vihar, around 20 kilometres (12 miles)
away in east Delhi.
“We have received a complaint from the
woman and investigations are ongoing,”
Delhi police spokesman Rajan Bhagat told
AFP.“We have filed a case under relevant
sections.”
Bhagat said the four men arrested were
Indians, and the car allegedly used had
been impounded.
Local media, quoting police sources, said
the victim was in an inebriated condition
at the time of her rescue and had suffered
minor injuries but was released from
hospital by Friday afternoon.
