The Delhi Police early Tuesday morning made its first arrest in the case involving the rape of a 24-year-old woman near Delhi’s Hauz Khas Village. The crime took place on Saturday night when the victim and her sister were leaving Hauz Khas Village and were looking for transport to head to their Munirka home. On Monday, the Delhi Police claimed to have narrowed its search and identified the suspect as a boy from South Delhi’s Humayunpur area, and he could be a juvenile. It was not immediately known if the arrest made earlier today was of the same individual. Special Commissioner of Police (Delhi Police spokesperson) Dependra Pathak had confirmed that they have identified the accused and said further investigations are underway.
