Detectives are keen to speak to anyone who was in the Milk Street/Ann Street/Milkstone Road areas or Nye Bevan House/Maclure Road car park between 10.20pm and 11.15pm on Friday 8 October 2010.
Detective Constable Janice Cruttwell, of Rochdale CID, said: "This was a nasty assault on a girl who was out alone and we are doing all we can to identify those responsible.
"Incidents such as this are rare and will understandably cause concern in the community so I would urge anyone with information about those responsible to come forward.
"I am especially keen to hear from anyone who was in the area on Friday evening to contact police."
