NEW DELHI â€"The Himachal Pradesh police said Wednesday that they were still looking for the three men who raped an American tourist after the victim was not able to identify any suspects in a lineup.

On Tuesday, a 30-year-old American woman was raped by three men in Manali, a tourist destination in northern India. After she reported being raped, the local police ordered all the truck drivers in Manali to report to the police station.

“Suspects were brought in yesterday for questioning who matched the victim’s descriptions,” Sanjay Kundu, an inspector general with the Himachal Pradesh Police, said in a telephone interview. “But when they were brought in, she did not identify them as the perpetrators of the attack.”

The woman was also robbed of her iPhone, a Nikon camera, 5,000 Indian rupees (equivalent to $90), $30 in U.S. currency and 1,500 Thai baht ($50), the police said in a statement.

The case has been registered under sections 376D of the Indian Penal Code, which applies when “a person is sexually assaulted by one or more persons constituting a group or acting in furtherance of a common intention”; section 392, which deals with robbery; and section 34, which applies to “acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention.”

The police assigned a female constable as a liaison between the police and the victim, who remains in Manali, to provide the “required security” for the victim. Police teams are also carrying out raids to look for the suspects and the vehicle.

The Himachal Pradesh Police also said that American Embassy officials would be sending representatives to help the victim.
