New Delhi, May 16: Three men were arrested on Tuesday for allegedly murdering the woman whose body was found inside LNJP Hospital twenty days ago. Police said the accused had gang-raped the woman twice before murdering her.

The accused have been identified as Salman alias Chimman (24) who works at a printing press, Arif (26) a butcher and Mohamed Yahiya (26) who works at a grocery store, said police. The fourth accused, Asif, is on the run. The identity of the woman, however, has not been established yet, said police.

Police said the men revealed during interrogation that they use to roam in the hospital premises and lure young women on pretext of friendship. The accused Yahiya had befriended the victim almost two weeks before her murder, when she had come to the hospital for treatment. He met her twice after that.

On the day of the murder (April 23), Yahiya allegedly called the woman on the pretext of introducing her to his friends. According to police, the four men then took her to one of the washrooms in the OPD and took turns to rape her. After she threatened to expose them, the accused persuaded her to come to Buddha Garden to sort out the matter. There again they gang-raped her, said cops. After consuming liquor at night, they brought her back to the hospital, said police.

This time as they tried taking her to the toilet, an argument broke out among the accused who were drunk. Sensing an opportunity to escape, the woman tried to raise an alarm. The accused then attacked her, stabbed her twice and slit her throat. They then fled from the premises.

Additional CP (central), Devesh Chandra Srivastava, said, "We have arrested three persons behind the woman's murder. We have evidence against them and they have confessed to the crime. The fourth accused has absconded. We are trying to establish the identity of the woman."

Strangely, the body went unnoticed for two days even though the area where it was found - a garbage dump near the doctors' hostel - was frequented by people and security guards also patrol the stretch.

The arrests come a day after the crime branch solved the case of the body that had been found near the Nehru Place Metro Station. This gruesome tale raises questions on the security provided at a major hospital in the capital. The cops are verifying if the four accused had committed a similar crime earlier.

Bareilly, May 31: The Bareilly couple who had made headlines in July last year when they eloped and apprehended a threat to their life from the girl's father who is a BJP MLA in UP, is back in the news.

Ajitesh, now son-in-law of BJP MLA Rajesh Mishra, and his friend were arrested on Saturday for allegedly thrashing a youth and snatching his cell phone after a minor road mishap in Prem Nagar area of Bareilly district.

Ajitesh is married to Sakshi, daughter of the MLA and the couple had eloped last year and got married.

According to police, the youth was on his way home after buying medicines for his friend's father when his bike hit Ajitesh's SUV. Ajitesh and his friend thrashed the youth and snatched his cell phone.

Police said Ajitesh and his friend Vaibhav Gangwar were booked under IPC section 394 (voluntarily causing hurt in committing robbery) and other relevant sections.

Both have been sent to jail.

The complainant Deepanshu Maheshwari said, "When I overtook Ajitesh's car, he chased and waylaid me in the middle of the road. Thereafter, he and his friend thrashed me and snatched my phone. SHO Balbir Singh and his team rescued me."

The SHO told reporters, "We checked CCTV footage and spoke to witnesses only to find that Ajitesh and his friend had thrashed the youth. A case was registered under relevant sections and both were sent to jail after being produced before a magistrate on Saturday. The youth has been admitted to a hospital and his condition is stable."

The BJP MLA, incidentally, had snapped all his ties with his daughter Sakshi after she eloped and married Ajitesh.

Panaji, Feb 23: A MiG-29K aircraft crashed off Goa during a routine training sortie on Sunday morning, the Indian Navy said in a statement.

"The pilot ejected safely and has been recovered. An enquiry into the incident has been ordered," the statement said.

On November 16, a MiG-29K trainer flight had crashed after a bird hit, soon after it took off the Dabolim International airport, which functions out of the Indian Navy base INS Hansa.

Both pilots had managed to safely eject themselves to safety after both the engines of their jet failed.

According to data tabled in the recent budget session of the Goa Assembly, every ten days, at least one aircraft landing or taking off at Goa's Dabolim international airport faces dangers involving birds or stray dogs near the runway.

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.

"The woman was in the isolation ward of the private hospital. There was a man, a medical practitioner, who too was infected with coronavirus and was sharing the ward with her," Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police, Noida, Ranvijay Singh said.

He said the woman alleged molestation and upon being informed, the police immediately lodged a case and initiated a probe into the matter.

"There appears to be some irresponsibility on part of the hospital too. We are communication with the medical departments to check whether the patients were being kept in accordance with the guidelines," Mr Singh said.

He said the accused is still in isolation but the police will reach out for his statement following due protocols of COVID-19.

"All necessary action will be taken as per the truth that will emerge after a thorough investigation," Mr Singh said.
