New Delhi, Dec 21 (IANS) Delhi Police Friday said they have arrested Akshay Thakur, the sixth accused in the brutal gang-rape of a 23-year-old woman Sunday night, from Aurangabad in Bihar.

Thakur was arrested by a special team of Delhi Police after several raids were conducted at different locations in Bihar.

"Since Tuesday, a special team of Delhi Police was conducting raids in Bihar. The last absconding accused Akshay Thakur was arrested from Bihar's Aurangabad Friday evening," said a police officer.

According to the officer, the accused is being brought to Delhi.

Four other accused were arrested Monday and Tuesday while the fifth accused, who is claiming to be a juvenile, was apprehended Thursday night.

The fifth accused, who claims to be 17 years old, was detained in a late night raid Thursday from Uttar Pradesh's Badaun by a special team of Delhi Police.

Since he claims to be a minor, police refused to divulge his details.

"He will be taken to a juvenile justice home after confirmation that he is a minor," said the officer.

Union Home Secretary R.K. Singh said it is yet to be confirmed whether he is a minor.

The savage rape and torture occurred Sunday night when the woman and her male friend boarded a private bus, used for ferrying school children, in south Delhi after watching a movie.

The woman is battling for life at Safdarjung Hospital here. Both were dumped by the roadside after 40 minutes.
