Rewari Gang-Rape case: Main accused of the Haryana CBSE topper gang-rape case held; 'he called doctor after assault,' says cops
After a long tussle, the Haryana Police have arrested the main accused in the connection with the alleged gang-rape of CBSE topper from Rewari on Sunday. The main accused, who allegedly planned the kidnap and gang-rape of a 19-year-old second-year college student in Haryana reportedly called a doctor. The police said after the victim's condition worsened the accused called up the doctor.
Nishu called up one Dr Sanjeev when he realised that the teenager's condition had worsened, police officer Nazneen Bhasin said on Sunday. Later, Dr Sanjeev and another man who owned the property, where the student was allegedly gang-raped, were arrested.
Two other accused, including an Army man, is yet to be arrested and police said raids were being done to trace them.
The police, however, say that the doctor too may have been involved in the teenager's rape. "The doctor was there when the rape happened and didn't inform any authority points to the fact that he didn't take correct legal action. Evidence also points out that he was involved in the act as well. Further forensics will clear the matter," Ms Bhasin said.
Speaking on the gang-rape case, Rahul Sharma, Rewari Superintendent of Police (SP) on Monday said that the safety of the victim is one of the main concerns.
