Hyderabad police on Saturday arrested two juveniles in the sensational gang rape case, taking the total number to three. Police are on the lookout for the remaining two accused.
On Friday, the police made the first arrest in the May 28 gang rape of the 17-year-old girl.
Of the two juveniles, the police confirmed that one of them is the son of a VIP but declined to reveal the latter’s name.
DCP Joel Davis said two CCLs (Child in Conflict with Law) were arrested by Jubilee Hills police. They were being produced before the Juvenile Court for their safe custody, he said.
“So far out of five accused persons identified, three are juveniles while one accused and two juveniles have been caught and efforts are on to arrest the remaining accused who are absconding,” he said.
Though traced on Friday, one of the minors could not be apprehended as police clarified that rules didn’t permit them to apprehend him during night hours.
The DCP had told reporters on Friday night that five accused, including two juveniles aged 16-17, have been identified.
One of the major accused Saduddin Malik (18) was arrested on Friday while the police teams were searching for Omair Khan (18).
Since the accused were not known to the victim and the crime was reported three days later, the accused escaped to other places.
