The victim`s boy-friend sighted a beat constable as he was nearing the car and approached him for help following which the gang member accompanying him fled from the scene. Though he along with police searched for the girl in the area, they could not find her.

Around midnight the boy-fried got a call from the girl saying the gang had dropped her back near the hostel after raping her.

Meanwhile, Deputy Commissioner of Police Siddaramappa said the gang also took valubles like iPod and mobile phones from the girl and her boyfriend.

"No external injuries were found on the girl", he told a news agency.

"While we are questioning the boy, we are also awaiting for the medical report from the hospital, which will give us a correct picture", Siddaramappa told a news agency here.
