According to a senior police officer of Bidhannagar Commissionerate, the girl was allegedly abducted when she went out of her house at around 1.30 AM.

The girl in her complaint alleged of knowing one of the two abductors, whom she had met a few weeks ago at a wedding ceremony and claimed that she felt unconscious because the duo had put a cloth on her mouth and it was then when she was sexually molested while the vehicle roamed along different streets of Rajarhat area, a police officer said.
