After sever medical tests, it has been proven that she was raped, one doctor of the hospital confirmed.
One senior official of Bidhannagar City Police told IBNS: "We have booked three suspects in connection with the case and are searching for another person, who was reportedly there inside the car. After recording victim's statement, we started investigation. After examining CCTV footage of the areas and interrogating few witnesses, we caught the trio. During primary interrogation, they all acknowledged their guilts."
"A suspected Tata Sumo car, which might be used to commit the crime, has been recovered and seized. We are sending it for forensic tests," the officer further said.
