We are seeking details from the local police, MEA spokesperson Vikas Swarup said. The police rescued the women on Tuesday evening after an NGO registered a case of trafficking of two Nepalese girls.

Two Nepali women were on Monday evening rescued from an apartment flat on the fifth floor of Ambience Island Caitriona complex here. The victims were rescued after the intervention of the Nepalese embassy and with the help of an NGO, Maiti India. The Nepali women were lured on pretext of all comforts and high salary for a job in Saudi Arabia by a woman in Nepal six months ago, Rajesh Kumar, Assistant Commissioner of Police(ACP), said here. "After keeping the duo for some time in Jeddah in Saudi Arabia, both were brought to Gurgaon. The victims were raped and gang raped by the diplomat and his friends and guests," Kumar added.

the victims also said in a police complaint, "“Right after we were employed, our employer took us to Saudi Arabia for 15 days. There, he did not touch us or misbehave with us. After we returned in May, he asked us to massage him… he then raped us and forced us to have unnatural sex and oral sex. After that he offered us to his friends regularly,” they stated in their police complaint."

Kumar said that a case against the diplomat and "unknown people" has been registered at the DLF-2 police station under various sections of gang-rape (376 D), rape (376), unnatural sex (377) and some other sections of Indian Penal Code.
