The driver of the auto, owned by a man whose father works in Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) and lives in Kotla Mubarakpur, was arrested from a friend's place in Moti Bagh, barely 100 metres from the spot where the victim last saw him and the vehicle, around 1.30 pm on Thursday. According to reports, the driver offered a lift to the woman, who was waiting for the bus, and raped her Moti Bagh.

After the rape, the woman approached a PCR vehicle, which took her to the nearest police station where she filed a complaint.

Police said the auto belonged to a CISF (Central Industrial Security Force) Head Constable who resides in Kotla Mubarkpur in south Delhi. "But no action has been taken against the accused", she said. He told the police that he had bought the auto a few months ago and appointed one Avnish as its driver some time back. Moreover, he said that the vehicle was not associated with the MHA anymore now as the Ministry's sticker had expired. She doesn't know much of the roads of Delhi. Deputy Commissioner of Police Ishwar Singh said the police would also request for a trial in a fast track court. However, the girl managed to raise an alarm after she saw a police patrol.

"The woman's statement was then recorded and her medical examination was conducted".

The DCP said, "The registered owner was questioned and he informed that the auto was being driven by one Avneesh, a resident of South Moti Bagh".

Around 1.30 pm, the police zeroed in on the accused and by 2 pm, Avneesh was located in a slum situated in Moti Bagh area, where he was about to begin drinking with a friend, he added.
