A 34-year-old woman was allegedly gang-raped in the national capital and two people have been arrested, police said on Wednesday.

According to the official, the incident took place in the early hours of Monday when the victim woman had asked for a lift from an unknown car in western Delhi. "The woman was picked from Sagarpur around 3.00 a.m. and then left in Nihal Vihar," the official said.
 
The two accused, who were in the car, took the victim woman to a secluded place in the Nihal Vihar area and committed the crime.
 
Based on the woman's complaint, the police registered an FIR under sections 376 D and 342 of the Indian Penal Code and nabbed the accused from the Hari Nagar area of the city after examining several CCTV footage.
 
Sources in the police department informed that of the two accused, one had turned 18 on the day of incident and both the accused were celebrating his birthday.
 
IANS learnt from sources that there was a delay in registering the FIR. However, a senior official informed that the issue was resolved immediately.
 
"Issue came up because of multiple jurisdiction of the police station where the car moved," he said. The police have also seized the car which was involved in the crime.
