According to officials, the incident occurred on Monday evening after the tourist, who arrived in Udaipur from Delhi on June 22, attended a gathering at The Greek Farm Cafe and Restro at Tiger Hill.

There, she met the accused—identified as Siddharth—who allegedly invited her out under the pretext of showing her scenic spots.
