A 52-year-old property dealer was arrested by Delhi police on suspicion of gang-raping a woman who was looking for a place to live in the Burari neighbourhood of north Delhi. The friend and co-accused in the case is being sought after, according to the police.

As per the Delhi Police, the 30-year-old lady contacted the accused, Jitendra Singh, a property dealer in Burari, while searching for a rental place.
