In her First Information Report (FIR), the girl alleged that she along with another girl signaled a private car to stop in the College Gate area on Saturday night and urged its inmate, Rony, to give them a lift when the vehicle stopped. Rony’s driver was driving the car at that time.

A few minutes later, one of the girls got down from the car near Shyamoli Shishu Mela. Later, Rony swooped on the victim and raped her.

However, the driver managed to flee the scene at one stage while Rony along with his private car was handed over to police.

The incident captured by one of the onlookers with his mobile phone went viral on social networking site Facebook.
