The two accused, Delhi-based Sidharth Chaudhary and Gurgaon-based Paras Goswami, were arrested on January 12 and were produced in local court which sent them to one-day police remand.
According to the police, Paras had invited the victim on November 18 last year to his flat in Gurgaon, where both allegedly took turns to rape her. They also made clips of the incident.
"Paras started demanding money by threatening her to upload the video on social networking sites. Despite the victim handing over some jewelries, the accused started demanding money on regular basis," ACP Hawa Singh, spokesperson of Gurgaon police, said.
The case was immediately handed over to Gurgaon crime branch.

The fathers of both the accused were high-ranked retired officials, police said.
