After doctors suspected that she could be coronavirus positive, she was kept in an isolation ward. Her family members have alleged that a doctor attending her in the isolation ward outraged her modesty for two successive nights on April 2 and 3.
“The following day, she was discharged from the hospital after her coronavirus test report was found to be negative. However, after returning home, she remained aloof and struck by fear. On questioning, she revealed how a doctor had sexually abused her in the isolation ward," her mother-in-law told Deccan Herald.
She passed away on April 6.
The police asked the mother-in-law to come to the hospital and identify the doctor. However, the accused was not identified.
Dr VK Prasad, the hospital superintendent said that
prima facie this is a serious matter. He said the CCTV footage will be dug out and strict action will be taken against the culprit.
Meanwhile, the National Commission of Women (NCW) has taken a cognisance of the matter.
