JAMMU: A rape accused attempted to escape in a state helicopter from Rajouri town to evade his arrest. However, he was eventually apprehended, police sources said.

Sources said Mohammad Pervez of Thanda Pani in Manjakote area managed to evade his arrest by the Rajouri Police by boarding a chopper that was carrying the people injured in an accident on March 8 to Jammu.

"The matter is being investigated," a senior police officer said adding that chief minister Omar Abdullah had ordered an inquiry into the matter too.

"A case against FIR number 18/2013 in Manjakote Police Station stands registered under relevant sections," sources said. Pervez was charged with rape of a woman at Kakora in Manjakote area on Friday.

Sources said that he pretended to be an accident victim of March 8 in which 15 people were killed and over a dozen injured. The injured were being moved to Government Medical College & Hospital (GMCH) Jammu in a helicopter for specialized treatment.

Deputy inspector general of police (DIG) Rajouri-Poonch range, Danish Rana when contacted on phone said that the rape accused managed to board the helicopter along with the seriously injured because his face was covered with bandages. "While committing criminal assault on the girl, he perhaps got some injuries on his face. He got the first aid (bandage) at Rajouri hospital. That enabled him to disguise himself."

While not ruling out the possibility of involvement of the hospital staff for getting him enlisted in the accident file, he said, "His name was in the injured list and thus he too was airlifted to Jammu along with the accident victims."< /p>

Since Pervez was not one of the accident victims, he sneaked out of the GMCH and went back to Rajouri. As soon as his absence was noticed, police launched a search hunt for him. He was arrested last night at Thandapani Manjakote of Rajouri.

The DIG said that the rape case against Pervez was under investigation.
