A businessman's daughter was abducted and raped inside a moving car by a 25-year-old youth Sunny in Janakpuri, West Delhi.
The 18-year-old Class 12 student of a leading west Delhi public school was on her way to school with her brother in a rickshaw near her home in Bindapur when a cary carrying Sunny and three others - Sashi, Jeevraj and Kapil - overtook the rickshaw. The boys dragged the girl inside the car and sped away. The girl's brother shouted but nobody in the locality came to her rescue, police said.
The four youths then drove the car to a secluded spot in Sitapuri where Sunny raped the girl inside the vehicle, while the other three came out to ensure nobody ventured near the car. The victim was them dumped nearby and the four fled from the spot. The victim later managed to inform her parents and a case was lodged in Janakpuri police station.
Medical examination confirmed rape. Janakpuri police has registered a case of rape, kidnapping and illegal confinement against the boy.
‘‘Our investigations reveal that the accused Sunny had been harassing the girl for a pretty long time. We are investigating if he had previous cases of similar nature registered against him,'' said a police officer.
Locals claimed Sunny and his friends had strong political connections in the area, and hence the police was initially reluctant to register the case. ‘‘We have arrested the accused without wasting any time,'' claimed the investigating officer.
This is the third such incident of a girl being raped in a moving car in Delhi.
