The accused, identified as Omkar, Sameer and Anoop, are residents of Delhi. The minor is from Sikkim. Police said the minor comes from an economically weak background. Last week, a woman named Monika visited the minors house in Sikkim and offered her a lucrative job in a hotel in Delhi.

However, she sold the minor to three persons, who allegedly raped the girl and also sent her to different places for sex trade. The accused also thrashed the minor when she resisted them. Police said on Sunday the three accused sent the girl to a client in Noida Sector 37 but she managed to escape from the clients clutches and reached Sector 39 police station and told police about her ordeal.
