The police have busted a gang which used to lure young girls from other states to the Capital on the pretext of providing jobs and then forced them into prostitution.
The gang was exposed after a 20-year-old girl hailing form Jharkhand escaped when some persons tried to rape her in a moving car after making her drink liquor. The girl jumped form the moving car in Defence Colony area and raised alarm. Seeing the girl shouting for help, passersby called the police who reached the spot almost immediately and rescued the girl.
Police said that the girl Rima (name changed) was a native of Jharkhand. She had been brought to the Capital by her acquaintance Jai Ram. "Jai Ram introduced Rima to three persons identified as Raj Kumar, Saleem and Pinku and told her that they will help her get a job and then left the place after having allegedly taken money from them. The trio then offered her liquor but she denied. They then beat her up and tried to gang rape her," said the police source.
Jai Ram had earlier brought Rima's elder sister to the capital a few months back in a similar fashion. He used to visit her family regularly and when Rima had asked him why his sister wasn't calling them, he had told her that she was ill and bedridden for a few days.
Following a written complaint by the victim, police began to investigate into the matter and arrested all the four accused on February 6, sources said.
During interrogation, police found that the accused used to first make the girls drink liquor to put them in an inebriated condition. They later gang raped them and shot their videos in compromising positions. The girls were then blackmailed and forced into prostitution. "They have made many girls their victim. This was not their first time," police said.
