A US woman who was allegedly gang-raped at a Delhi hotel will help the investigating team
A 25-year-old US national, who was allegedly gang-raped earlier this year in a five-star hotel in New Delhi, arrived in the national capital this morning to join the investigation. She will be meeting the investigating team to help them pursue the case, said a senior police officer.
She had said earlier that she was not satisfied with the way in which the investigation had been carried out and was ready to come to India to identify the accused men.
On December 8, the tour guide, accused of raping her along with his accomplices, was questioned by the police after being brought back from Nepal. The police had identified the man and contacted him while he was in Nepal.
The tour guide had denied his involvement in the matter, and instead, told the police that the woman had given positive comments about him in the feedback form while returning to her country. He also said that an internal inquiry by the travel agency hadn't found him guilty.
The woman had alleged that she was raped by a group of men for two days. They also allegedly threatened her with dire consequences if she reported the matter to anybody. The woman had also stated that the accused had allegedly made a video of the act and had threatened to make it public if she reported the matter to anyone.
