Delhi Man Arrested After Two-Year Manhunt for Abduction and Rape

Omkar Singh, accused of abducting and raping a 16-year-old girl in Delhi, has been arrested after evading capture for two years. The girl was taken from a market in July 2023 and held for three months. Singh was apprehended on a train after his location was tracked.

In a breakthrough arrest, police have apprehended Omkar Singh, who had been on the run for two years after allegedly abducting and raping a 16-year-old girl in Delhi.

The victim vanished from a village under Gopiganj police station on July 9, 2023. Her mother, after days of searching, filed a complaint leading to the registration of a kidnapping case on July 16, 2023.

Authorities traced Singh to Delhi, where he had been hiding since selling his Shahjahanpur property. Although the girl was rescued last November, Singh eluded capture until Tuesday when police arrested him on a train passing through Gyanpur Road station.
