A 26-year-old woman was allegedly killed after being gang-raped by three workers at EWS colony near Samrala Chowk late last night.
Station House Officer (SHO) Division No 7 police station Harpal Singh Grewal said all the three accused, Johar, Pappu and Balvir, have been arrested.
The three worked in a factory and were tenants in the victim's house.

In a statement to the police, the victim's brother said at 1.30 am, he heard some noise from the roof top and when he reached there, he was shocked to see the blood-soaked body of his sister.
His sister's one hand was chopped and clothes were tattered.
