A 22-year-old woman, native of Uttarakhand, was allegedly raped in the Manesar area by her social media friend on the pretext of getting her a job.

After the medical examination, which has confirmed rape, an FIR was registered at the Women police station, Manesar, today. The police said the accused, Amit Kaushik, was absconding.

The victim, who is residing in a nearby village near the IMT, Manesar, in her complaint, told the police that she had come into contact with the accused, Amit Kaushik, through Facebook.

"I was earlier working in the IMT, Manesar, but lost job. I met him on Facebook and we became good friends. During online chat, he promised me a job in a reputed company in Manesar. On Sunday, Amit asked me to reach Manesar immediately for job. Trusting him, I went to Manesar where he took me to a hotel, offered some soft drink, laced with sedatives, and raped me. He also threatened me with dire consequences if I tell someone about the incident," the victim told the police.

Following the complaint and medical report, an FIR has been registered against Amit Kaushik under Sections 376 (rape) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the IPC at the Women police station, Manesar.
