Delhi gang-rape case takes a new twist as accused claim money dispute. Here's what we know so far

Days after a woman claimed she was allegedly gangraped in a bus in Outer Delhi’s Nangloi early Tuesday, a new twist has emerged in the case. The woman alleged that both the accused sexually assaulted her inside the bus. However, the accused claimed that it was a "monetary dispute" with police saying this was a matter of investigation, Times of India reported.

Investigators said an argument allegedly broke out between the woman and the accused over money. According to police, the woman first used one of the accused, Umesh’s phone to contact Ramendra, who had earlier got off the bus, to ask for money. When he refused, she then used the same phone to call the police and report the alleged incident, the report said.
