Investigators, which had released a sketch yesterday, said they will release another sketch soon.

"We have released another sketch today. The victim's friend has seen him clearly," Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) H G S Dhaliwal said.

"We have drawn the sketch of the third suspect. But the victim has some more vital descriptions. We did not want to disturb the victim because of her state of mind," he said.

The victim was walking towards her home in Moti Village near Dhaula in south Delhi early Wednesday morning along with one of her colleagues when the men in a vehicle abducted her and took turns to rape her. She was later dumped in Mongolpuri after which she approached police.

Investigators have not been able to arrest anyone in the case though it had scurried through the footage from three CCTVs in the locality but did not get much from it as the clippings were blurred, the official said.
