New Delhi, June 28 (IANS): Two men arrested for raping two Tanzanian women here were sent to 14 days' judicial custody Saturday, police said.
Kunal Singh, 27, and Satish Singh, 28, residents of Shastri Nagar and R.K. Puram, respectively, were arrested from the house of a common friend in south Delhi's Sarojini Nagar area after the two women made a call to police at 4.30 p.m. Friday.
"Kunal and Satish were produced before a district court which sent them to 14 days' judicial custody," a police official said.
The women, in their late 20s, told police they were taken to the house and raped by the two men. Police said the men were known to the women, and that an argument on a trivial issue took place following which the women called police.
A police official said both the women met Kunal and Satish outside a hotel in south Delhi and accompanied them to a flat in Sarojini Nagar.
"They (the victims and the accused) consumed liquor inside the flat. The women were sexually assaulted after they consumed alcohol. However, the accused denied the allegation and claimed that this was a money-related dispute," said the official.
