As per reports, two women were also involved in the crime. The Sambhal Kotwali police station registered an FIR against all seven under different sections.
SHO Anoop Sharma, who has been investigating the rape case, said that the seven accused have been absconding and so far they have not made any arrests. As per the rape victim, Asim and Mohd Arshad had kidnapped her on September 27.
Both the men then sedated the victim and took her to the house of their friend Ashiq Khan in Moradabad district, where she was raped by all three men. Later, Faiz Alam and Soni Hussain also joined the three accused and assaulted the girl numerous times.
