The matter came to light when the accused sent a nude photo of the Class 11 girl to her mother and also shared it online. The accused has been identified as Raj Diwedi from Uttar Pradesh.

Police said that it was after a complaint from the victim's mother that an FIR was registered against the suspect.

Her mother told police that the accused called her daughter to a hotel in Gurugram and raped her there.
