- Hemani Bhandari

An 18-year-old first-year MBBS student has alleged that she was repeatedly raped by a 20-year-old man and sexually assaulted by two of his friends at a hotel in northwest Delhi’s Adarsh Nagar area, police said on Sunday, adding that the accused filmed the assault and blackmailed her into further sexual compliance for nearly a month.

Police registered a case on Friday and are searching for the suspects, who are all currently absconding, said deputy commissioner of police (north west) Bhisham Singh.

A senior police officer familiar with the case details said that the victim, originally from Jind in Haryana and currently residing in a Delhi hostel, approached authorities on Thursday.
