picked up from outside her house and raped by an unidentified man in South-East Delhi's Govindpuri area.
The incident took place at around 8 pm yesterday when the girl was playing outside her house. However, when her parents came out, they could not find her.
After searching for her in the neighbourhood, the parents filed a missing compliant with the Govindpuri police station.
The girl, however, returned home at around midnight in a dishevelled state with bruises all over her body.
"The victim told her parents that when she was playing outside, a man approached her and threatened to get her beaten up by her parents. He then took her to an isolated location nearby and raped her," said a police official.
"The girl has injuries on her private parts and bruises all over her body. She is undergoing treatment in the hospital," the official said.
