A 19-year-old woman along with her three associates was arrested here for robbing a Delhi-based businessman after laying a honey-trap for him, police said Monday.

Zoya, 19, her boy friend Sunil Kumar Gupta, 23, and their associates Sunil Kumar, 28 and Rinku Sharma, 25, were Sunday nabbed from different areas of south Delhi for robbing a businessman Deskyong Namgyal April 1.

Namgyal of Green Park in south Delhi told police that on the intervening night of March 30 and 31, he met Zoya at a discotheque of a reputed five-star hotel in south Delhi where they exchanged their mobile numbers.

"April 1, Zoya called Namgyal, asking him to meet her at a place in south Delhi. She then took him to a DDA flat where her associates were present. All the accused forcibly took away Namgyal's wrist watch, iPhone and debit card after assaulting him," Deputy Commissioner of Police P. Karunakaran said.

Gupta, who is a vegetable vendor, was arrested with the help of CCTV footage at the ATM from where he withdrew money using the victim's debit card. The other accused were nabbed after he spilled the beans about their whereabouts.
