In a shocking incident reminiscent of the 2012 Nirbhaya case, a woman has allegedly been gang-raped by the driver and conductor of a private sleeper bus in Delhi's Mangolpuri area. Police have arrested the two suspects as the investigation unfolds.
The incident occurred on May 11, as the victim was returning home from work. She reportedly asked one of the men for the time near the B-Block bus stand in Saraswati Vihar, after which she was forcibly taken inside the bus and assaulted.
Police have registered an FIR and are analyzing CCTV footage to verify the claims. Former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and AAP leaders likened the crime to the infamous Nirbhaya case, expressing shame and calling for strict action.
