The accused, Janardhan and Sanga Reddy, have been arrested and sent to jail.
The woman stated in her complaint she had gone to Miyapur on Sunday to work as a saleswoman. There, she met the two men, who picked her up from her hostel and went to a site in Yadagirigutta. While returning at night, they stopped at an under-construction building. The car had a breakdown, they told her.

Taking advantage of the situation, the men stripped her in the car and sexually assaulted her till early morning, the woman alleged. She claimed she was also beaten, which led to severe body pain.
The men then left her at a hostel in Miyapur and fled, the complaint read.
The police have filed a case under rape and other charges.
