The Rohtak Police on Monday said the search operation to nab the accused of the rape that took place earlier on Wednesday was on.

"We have sent different teams to catch the culprits, but no one has been arrested yet. The girl told us that these very men had raped her in 2013. An FIR was also registered and the matter is currently going on in the High Court. We are trying to arrest the accused as soon as possible," Rohtak Sub-Inspector said.

The Sub-Inspector said they have the girl's statement where she said that she is a student of the I.C. College and she was abducted from outside her college and raped by five men, who had earlier raped her in 2013.

Narrating the horrific incident, the victim said she was returning from her college earlier on Wednesday when she saw the five men who had raped her earlier.

"I got scared seeing them. They forcefully pushed me inside the car. They were the same men, who had raped me earlier," she added.

Demanding justice, the victim's brother said the five men gang-raped her and threatened to kill her.
