Nagaland woman pulled towards car by 3 men at 5-star hotel, friends attacked
On Sunday morning around 3:30 AM, a woman from Nagaland was allegedly targeted and physically forced by three men near the parking area of a five-star hotel in Chanakyapuri, New Delhi. The incident unfolded when the woman and her friends were leaving the hotel. Three men, driving a white Mercedes, allegedly attempted to pull the woman into their vehicle. When her friends tried to stop the men, the accused allegedly responded by assaulting them using hockey sticks and iron rods, according to the police.
The woman's friends sustained injuries, with one of them sustaining damage to his teeth, reported an officer. The men allegedly fled the scene in their car once the police arrived on the scene. The woman had managed to note down the car's registration number, which proved instrumental in the subsequent identification of the accused, as revealed by the police.
The three individuals were booked at the Chanakyapuri police station based on the woman's complaint alongside the medical examination she underwent at RML Hospital. The police are currently examining CCTV footage from the hotel as well as other evidence to reconstruct the sequence of events leading up to the assault. The medical reports are also being scrutinized to ascertain the extent of the injuries sustained by those involved, according to the police.
