A 21-year-old girl was allegedly raped by an Indian Reserve Battalion (IRB) constable in a hotel here, police said today.

The girl, a resident of Chichhroli village of Mahendragarh district, had been called to the hotel on June 4 by the accused Jitender on the pretext of negotiating the modalities regarding their marriage which he had earlier promised.

She was later raped by the IRB personnel in the hotel, they said.

However, when the victim came to know that Jitender's wedding with another girl was tentatively fixed for July 17, she along with her family members came to Rewari yesterday and lodged a complaint against him.
 

On the basis of her complaint, a case was lodged today and efforts are on to nab the absconding accused, police added.
