Dhaka/IBNS: At least two people have been detained in connection with the gangrape of a garment worker at Ashulia's Narsinghpur area in Bangladesh, media reports said on Tuesday.

The 19-year-old filed a case against three people this morning. Another accused Shamiul Islam Mridha Shohan (22) was on the run, reported The Daily Star.

In the case, the victim claimed that Shamiul was her co-worker and was in a relationship with her, reported the newspaper.

He took her to Arif's house on Sunday.
