The incident took place at around  9:30 pm on Friday when the woman, who works for a finance company in Gurgaon, was headed back to her home in north Delhi's Inderlok area. 

On the way, the woman dozed off on the back seat of the car only to wake up and find that they had stopped at an  isolated spot.

She found that the car doors were locked and, when she tried to raise an alarm, the driver beat her up and then raped her.

The accused then dropped her off near her home in Inderlok after threatening to kill her if she spoke of the matter to anybody.
