A 22-year-old man was arrested for repeatedly raping a minor girl after kidnapping her from her house in New Delhi, police said on Monday.
Parwaiz, a resident of east Delhi's Jafrabad, was arrested on Saturday from his house after the 15-year-old victim's family registered a complaint that the girl was missing.
The accused befriended the victim, a resident of central Delhi's Kamla Market, and kidnapped her from her house last week.
"After kidnapping the victim, Parwaiz married her and raped her several times," said a police officer.
The girl has been handed over to her family and the accused has been booked, the officer said.
