Police Investigate Alleged Gang Rape of Delhi University Student in Lucknow; Accused Remain at LargePreviousNext

A 19-year-old Delhi University student from Jaunpur alleges she was drugged, held captive for several days, and gang-raped in Lucknow's Sushant Golf City area after being persuaded to get off a train at Charbagh station. The main accused, Shivam Yadav, and an associate remain absconding, reportedly changing SIM cards and locations to evade arrest. Police have formed four teams to investigate, detained one suspect, and announced a combined reward of Rs 50,000 for information leading to their capture.
