Bhubaneswar: A woman was allegedly gang-raped by three youths for objecting to noisemaking at a birthday party at Dhirikuti slum in Odisha capital, police said on Wednesday.

The incident took place on December 11 (Sunday) and came to light after the woman lodged a complaint on Monday on basis of which police arrested the three.  The accused have been identified as Debashis Pradhan alias Malinga (24), Deepak Kumar Sethy (24) and Swadhin Kumar Nayak alias Sanu (22). All of them are residents of the city.

According to police sources, Deepak organised a birthday party on December 11 evening. The woman, a resident of the locality,  found the noise annoying and asked them to stop creating a nuisance.

The accused trio then grabbed the woman and dragged her into the house, where they raped her. Some neighbours came to her rescue after hearing her screams. The trio, however, threatened to kill the woman before fleeing.

The woman filed a complaint with Mancheswar police the following day, on the basis of which a case was registered and the accused were arrested under Sections 294, 323, 354, 354 (A), 448, 376, 511, 506 and 34 of the IPC.

They confessed to the crime during questioning and were forwarded to court, the sources further said.

Police have launched a manhunt to nab the other eight persons involved in the crime.
