Local media had reported that the university student was from Singapore. She was allegedly gang-raped while on an exchange programme in Hong Kong.
This happened on June 29 when the young woman was allegedly raped six times by three Nepalese men on a yacht.
She had met them earlier at a pub in Lan Kwai Fong, Hong Kong's famous nightlife district.
Two men were charged on Monday with rape as well as aiding and abetting rape. The third, who is out on bail, is to report back to police by the end of the month.
