According to the police, the incident took place around 8 PM last night when the girl had gone out for fetching water from a local tap in Fathepur Beri of south Delhi.
"When she was going to fetch water from nearby tap, her three neighbours reached there and abducted her and took her to nearby forest area. However, the girl fought with the men when they tried to rape her and managed to flee the spot," said a police officer.
The girl suffered injuries on her head and is currently admitted to All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) for medical treatment.
