A 19-year-old college student was allegedly kidnapped and gang-raped by a group of men in Haryana's Mahendergarh district. The incident took place on Wednesday, the police said. 

According to reports, about four to five people abducted the woman, who had topped CBSE Board exams a couple of  years ago, while she was on her way to a coaching centre.

The accused men, who arrived in car, took her to a secluded place where she was gang-raped after being offered a drink laced with sedatives.

The accused later left her near a bus stop in Kanina. According to an official of Women Police station, Rewari, a 'zero FIR' was lodged on the complaint of the woman, and the probe was being conducted by the Mahendergarh police as the incident occurred in the area under their jurisdiction. 

Zero FIR can be filed in any police station, irrespective of place of incident or jurisdiction and the same can be later transferred to the concerned Police Station. 

Meanwhile, Harayana Chief Minister ML Khattar has assured strict action against the accused. However, the victim's family has alleged that they are being threatened  the accused. “Modi ji says 'Beti Padhao, Beti Bachao'. But how? I want justice for my daughter. Police has taken no action yet," said the victim's mother.

"Law will take its own course and whoever is found guilty will be punished," Khattar told reporters when asked about the case.
