    A 35-year-old Kenyan woman was gang-raped in a moving car here, the police said Friday, adding that four people have been arrested.

    Police said the victim was under the influence of alcohol.

    Police added that the woman did not know the accused and jumped out of the car near the toll plaza in Mayur Vihar area.
     
    Rakesh, Deepak, Sunny -- all residents of west Delhi's Devli village -- were arrested along with Jonson, a resident of Mayur Vihar, hours after the incident.
     
    "We got the registration number of the car which was used in the commission of crime with the help of the footage captured in the CCTV cameras installed near the toll plaza," said the officer.
     
    "We recovered the car from Mayur Vihar and arrested its owner Jonson. The other three accused were also arrested later on his information," the official said.
