A parliamentary panel today questioned the Delhi Police chief over the gang rape incident in the capital and said deficiencies like vacancies at officer level and lack of vehicles to patrol the streets existed.

Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar appeared before the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Home to face questions on 'growing atrocities against women in Delhi'.

Home Secretary RK Singh, who was also to appear before the panel, could not attend the meeting. Kumar informed the panel about the sequence of events of the incident and said the police control room vans reacted "promptly' after receiving the phone call about the crime.
