"The car, in which the 25-year-old woman was offered a liftand allegedly raped at a secluded place near Manali, has been recovered from Kullu and two persons have been detained for questioning," SP, Kullu, Padam Chand said.
"Police are scanning the CCTV footage. As it was dark, the visuals are not clear, but we are hopeful of arresting all the accused," he said.
"Due to non-availability of a specialist gynaecologist in Mandi, the victim has been sent to Civil Hospital, Bilaspur, for a detailed medical examination. Primary tests suggest that the woman was sexually assaulted," Chand said.
The victim had in a police complaint alleged the accused offered her lift in their car while she was waiting for a cab to get to Lahaul to reunite with friends who had already left for the nearby town.
