Wife_gang-rapedNew Delhi, Jun 20: A 20-year-old woman was allegedly gang raped in northeast Delhi by two electricians on Tuesday night.

The accused Digambar (30) and Ravi (32) were arrested from their residence in Loni, Ghaziabad. A case of gang rape has been registered.

According to the police, the victim and her husband, residents of Motihari in Bihar, were travelling by train to Ambala after being asked to quit their jobs in Meerut. However, the train terminated its journey midway at Saharanpur and the couple decided to go Delhi via bus. They managed to reach Loni, where they met the two accused.

"The accused took them to Zohripur in Gokalpuri area. They drugged the victim's husband and gang-raped her several times. The accused then fled from the spot," said a senior police officer. On Wednesday morning, the victim was on her way to Anand Vihar in an auto when the driver came to know of the incident. He convinced the couple to lodge a case and dropped them at the police station.

However, Aam Aadmi Party workers have claimed the woman's husband was not drugged and she was locked up for over two days and gang-raped. "The accused locked her up on Sunday," claimed an AAP worker. Late on Wednesday night, AAP protesters were detained at Bhajanpura police station. This led Arvind Kejriwal to urge his party workers to flock to the police station. Kejriwal also tweeted that his men were beaten up, however, this was denied by the police.

The victim has been sent for medical examination to Guru Tegh Bahadur Hospital. Confirming that a woman had been gang raped, DCP (northeast) Dheeraj Kumar said further investigations are on to ascertain the chain of events. "We will record the victim's statement with a magistrate soon," he said.

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.
