Pune: Two persons have been arrested for allegedly abducting and raping a woman inside a vehicle near Alandi town in Pune district, police said on Sunday.
The incident took place on Tuesday and the duo was arrested the next day from Pimpri-Chinchwad township, they said.
"The woman was on her way to her residence to Chakan Chowk in Alandi. The accused came in a tempo and offered lift to her," senior police inspector Ravindra Chaudhar said.
"But instead of dropping her home, the duo took her to a deserted place and raped her," he said.
She later escaped from their clutches and sought help from a security guard, who in turn informed the police control room, Chaudhar said.
After the incident, Alandi police had registered an offence against the duo and arrested them from Pimpri-Chinchwad, he said.
The tempo involved in the crime has been seized, police said, adding that the case was being investigated.
