Two, out of the four persons booked under sections 376 (rape), 363 (kidnapping), 342 (wrongful confinement) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code, have been arrested while two others were still at large. The culprits identified as Rajbir Singh and lakhwinder Singh alias lucky, both in their mid-20s and locals, were arrested based on a complaint filed by the nurse on Tuesday, said Mansa Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Bhupinder Singh Khatra.
According to the complaint, the woman was gang-raped, kept in illegal confinement and was robbed in Gurne village near Budhladha town on Monday.
