"She did not agree for the medical examination at Goa saying that she is married to Nishan Singh (who allegedly abducted her on gunpoint on September 24 in Faridkot)," he said.
However, the accused and the girl, who were traced to the state yesterday, would be presented before a magistrate at Faridkot tomorrow morning.
"We will again seek permission for her medical examination tomorrow from the magistrate," he said.
"Strict action will be taken against the guilty as per law," he added.
He said the Bathinda range IG N S Dhillon had met the parents of the girl yesterday after she was found, but they allegedly expressed reluctance to accept their daughter.
"Whether the girl had gone voluntarily or forcibly an offence has taken place and action will be taken against all accused," he said.
