According to her complaint, the incident happened on December 15, 2014.

A 19-year-old German woman has reportedly complained of being raped and assaulted by an auto driver in New Delhi. The incident happened on December 15, 2015, reports ANI.

The Delhi Commission for Women has received an email complaint from the victim. 

The victim told the commission that she had walked out of her hotel room at night and got lost in the alleyways, so she asked for directions from an auto driver.

Instead of dropping her safely to her hotel room, the auto driver assaulted and raped her in the dark. She somehow managed to get away and ran into another street when the auto driver found her again, this time with a group of men sitting inside the auto.

They all ran towards her, and started molesting her when she bit the tongue of one of them and he yelled causing enough commotion for them to get afraid lest someone hear them, and run away. 

Devastated, she wandered towards the main road and sat down on the pavement. A young man who was returning home from work found her in that state and without asking her about what happened to her, he dropped her back to her hotel. 

The victim reportedly lodged an FIR on February 24 after she met with the woman's panel.
