Police had detained the two youth after the woman had alleged that one of them raped her in a moving car while the other along with his friend was present at the time of assault.
However, during investigations, their mobile phone location at the time specified by the victim were found to be somewhere else. Police also found discrepancies in the victims statement.
A police official said that they are contemplating taking legal course to withdraw the FIR in the case.
