A court here on Wednesday recorded the statement of a policeman as a prosecution witness in the gang rape of a 51-year-old Danish woman.

Additional Sessions Judge Kaveri Baweja continued with the recording of the statement of sub-inspector Anand, whose examination remained incomplete on Tuesday.

Anand arrested the first accused in the case, Mahender.

The recording of evidence in the case will continue on August 11.

Arjun, Raju, Mohammad Raja, Mahendra, Raju and Shyam Lal have been charged with robbing and raping the Danish woman at knife-point near New Delhi railway station in January 2014 after she sought directions to her hotel in Paharganj.

Three minors allegedly involved in the case are facing an inquiry before the Juvenile Justice Board.

Police said all the accused were vagabonds who took the woman to an isolated spot near the Divisional Railway Officers' Club close to the railway station, took her belongings and then raped her.
