All her attackers have been arrested.

The incident came to light Wednesday night when a Police Control Room (PCR) van tried to flag down a car which had tinted glasses, in north Delhi's Burari area.

The car sped away, was chased and overtaken, and all the accused were arrested, said a police officer. The victim was then rescued.

The woman told police that first she was gang raped in west Delhi's Swaroop Nagar and later was assaulted again in the moving car.

"The victim, who knows one of the accused, had gone to meet him in Swaroop Nagar Wednesday night. The accused was present with his three other friends, who took her to a nearby Uttarakhand Colony and gang-raped her," said the officer.

"After committing the crime the accused bundled the victim into a car and were heading towards Burari," said the officer.
