New Delhi:
A 16-year-old student hailing from Kerala was raped allegedly by three men, including one who is her "friend and neighbour", police said today.
The Class XI student of a school in Chanakyapuri who resides in south Delhi's R K Puram area, was sexually assaulted by the trio on February two, a senior police official said.
Mohit Pal, the neighbour of the girl, and his two friends Sharad Kumar and Amit, all in their early 20s, were arrested yesterday following investigations into a complaint filed by her parents on February 3.
Mohit and Amit live in government quarters in R K Puram Sector VI and work in hotels. Mohit is the son of a government employee.
"Mohit leads a lavish life and used to ride sporty motorcycles. They were friends and used to meet," the official said.
On February 2, after her school hours, Mohit allegedly took her to a restaurant for lunch. After that he took her to his friend Sharad's rented accommodation in Mohammadpur, saying he wants to talk to her.
"After reaching there, he called his friends. They took turns to rape the girl. They threatened her with dire consequences if she told anyone about the matter," the official said.
Initially, she did not tell anyone about the incident. But on February 3, she told her parents about the incident. The parents then approached police who took her to a hospital where a medical examination confirmed rape.
