The incident reportedly took place late on Monday after the two accused offered her a lift while she was waiting for transport. The woman is currently undergoing treatment and is not yet fit to record her statement, police added.

Accused in Custody

The duo, originally from Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh and currently residing in Faridabad, have been arrested, police said.

Details of the Incident

According to the complaint lodged by the woman’s sister, she had been staying at her parents’ house due to marital discord. On Monday evening, she visited a friend’s residence in Sector 23 and was offered a lift by the accused while returning home late at night.
