A case has been registered by Airport Police and she was sent for medical examination in Bowring Hospital as the victim said that she know the hospital and came for examination on December 12. But on December 13, when State Human Rights Commission members went to the hospital to record her statement, the victim had discharged herself and left for Delhi.
