Gurugram: A 23-year-old Spanish woman was allegedly raped in DLF phase 1 here by a man who befriended her on social media, police said on Saturday.
The woman reached Gurugram from Spain a couple of weeks ago to get an internship with a multinational company. She was looking for rented accommodation and had shared a post on Facebook in this regard.
The accused, Ajanya Nath, a resident of Anand Vihar in Delhi contacted her over Facebook and offered assistance in finding a rented flat.
Nath befriended her on the social media and invited the woman to a dinner party at a rented flat in DLF phase 3 on June 14, said Subhash Bokan, PRO of Gurugram police.
"When she reached the flat, Nath allegedly raped her. The woman reached a civil hospital. When she was questioned by doctors, she narrated her ordeal. The civil hospital doctors informed Gurgaon police about the incident," Bokan said.
Sensing the gravity of the matter, a police team immediately scanned Facebook profile and mobile phone of the woman using which it gathered some clue including the name and address of the accused.
Subsequently, a raid was conducted at his home and he was nabbed, Bokan said.
The accused was booked under Indian Penal Code sections pertaining to rape and criminal conspiracy, Bokan added.
