The jungles of Haryana are swarming with cops these days. After nabbing the fourth accused in the gang rape case of a BPO employee in the Capital, police are now hunting for the fifth suspect in the neighbouring state.
Three of the accused have been arrested, while one has been taken into custody on transit remand from Haryana. The victim has picked them out in Test Identification Parade (TIP).
"Now we are searching for the fifth and the last accused. We are trying to get information about his hideouts from those arrested. Our teams are tirelessly hunting for the accused Karmu in Haryana," confirmed a senior police officer.
