Ranchi, November 4: A 17-year-old diploma student was raped by the manager of a city-based girls' hostel on Saturday morning. The victim, who was seeking academic assistance Abhishek Srivastava, was alone in the hostel as her roommate was attending college. Srivastava, who manages a boys' and girls' hostel at Premnagar in Jagarnathpur, also lives in the same area.

 

Jagannathpur police station officer in-charge Anil Kumar said: "The accused has confessed and he has been sent to jail." The victim has been sent for medical test, he said

 

On Saturday, the victim did not go to college, Vidya Memorial Institute of Technology in Tupudana, as she had to attend to some personal work. "Around 10am, Srivastava told me that he had some information about diploma courses and wanted to share it with me," the police quoted the victim as saying. In the FIR, the girl said that he raped her when she went into his room. Only a few students were at the hostel when the incident occurred.

 

Devendra Shukla, investigating officer of the case, said: "Around 100 students live in the two-storied hostel on Road No 6." Srivastava hails from Kushinagar in Uttar Pradesh and has been managing the hostels on contract with the landlords for the last few years. The owners of the hostel do not stay on the premise. An inmate of the hostel said, "The accused was of flirty nature and used to try to mingle with all the girls living here. The victim was new and was not aware of his character."

Surat, Jul 16: Woman police constable Sunita Yadav, who had a confrontation with a minister's son over lockdown violation which led to his arrest here in Gujarat, claimed she has resigned from service. However, a senior police official has denied it.

Prakash Kanani, the son of Gujarat Minister of State for Health Kumar Kanani, and his two friends were arrested on Sunday for allegedly violating the lockdown and night curfew orders in Surat, a COVID-19 hotspot, a senior police official earlier said.

Yadav, who is being hailed on social media for taking action against the minister's son, told news channels on Wednesday that she had put in her papers.

"I have resigned because I did not receive support from my superior officers. I was only doing my duty as a constable. It's the fault of our system that these people (like the minister's son) think they are VVIPs (very very important persons)," she said.

However, a senior police official here denied that she has resigned.

"She has not given her resignation. The inquiry is still on and technically she cannot resign at this juncture," Surat Police Commissioner R B Brahmbhatt said.

Yadav's action had led to the registration of an FIR and arrest of Prakash Kanani and two of his friends for alleged violation of lockdown and curfew norms in Surat city.

The arrests came after a video of a heated exchange between them and Yadav, who pulled up the trio for violation of curfew, surfaced on social media. The trio was later released on bail.

Since the incident, Yadav is being hailed on social media.

While some social media users called her "Lady Singham" (referring to the tough cop in the Hindi film "Singham"), some suggested she contest the 2022 state Assembly polls against Kumar Kanani, who represents Varachha constituency in Surat district.

Noida, Jul 28: A doctor admitted at a private hospital in Noida has been accused of sexually harassing a patient in his isolation ward, where both were undergoing treatment for COVID-19, the police said.

The 20-year-old woman, in her complaint to the police, alleged that the incident took place on Monday and based on that a case was filed at the local expressway police station, they said.

A senior police official said an investigation is underway and there might be lapses on part of the hospital which allegedly admitted a man and a woman in the same isolation ward, in violation of the norms.

The woman and the doctor had tested positive for coronavirus last week, according to officials.
