Police officials said that a case was promptly registered on the victims complaint and two of the accused - Kumar and Santosh - have been arrested.


The third accused, Vinay, is absconding, they said.


Chowk inspector IP Singh informed TOI a case under gangrape has been registered and all efforts are on to nab Vinay.



KGMU vice chancellor Prof MLB Bhatt ordered that the security agency and lift maintenance agency be blacklisted. "It has been decided to completely blacklist the two agencies after the gruesome incident," said spokesperson Prof Verma.
