One of the accused could be a staffer of the hotel because the woman said that one person among them was wearing the uniform of the hotel. "The woman stated that she had only gone to the hotel to earn some money by doing the cleaning and sanitation work. Her section 164 CrPC statements would be recorded on Saturday," the SHO added.
According to the police, the case appeared to be a little dicey. "The woman has also stated that she has no idea about the accused who raped her and they were all strangers to her. There are some unanswered questions," an officer was quoted as saying.
