Three of the six men accused of gangraping an American student at a prestigious institute here are still absconding even as the victim alleged that the police stationed at a state-run hospital where she underwent a medical checkup refused to help her.

The 23-year-old student pursuing a course at the Tata Institute of Social Science (TISS) said she was traumatised when the police allegedly refused to help her at the hospital when she had tried to lodge a complaint, a day after the incident happened on April 11.
