The Uttarakhand Nurse Raped did not arrive to her leased home in Bilaspur, Uttar Pradesh, where she was staying with her 11-year-old daughter, after leaving the hospital in Uttarakhand in the evening of July 30.
A Uttarakhand Nurse Raped nurse was slain after being sexually assaulted on her way home from a private hospital in Uttarakhand to her residence close to the border with Uttar Pradesh.
She left the hospital on July 30 in the evening, and CCTV footage shows her boarding an e-rickshaw at Indra Chowk in Rudrapur. However, she never made it to her leased home on Kashipur Road in Bilaspur, Uttar Pradesh, where she was staying with her 11-year-old daughter.
Her sister reported her missing the following day. August 8, eight days later, her body was discovered by Uttar Pradesh police on an abandoned site approximately 1.5 km from her home in Dibdiba village.
In order to locate the accused, the police organized a squad and sent the body for a post-mortem. They located Dharmendra, the accused, by following the stolen cell phone used by the victim. The accused, a daily wage worker from Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, was taken into custody on Wednesday in Rajasthan.
When the victim was going to enter her apartment building, Dharmendra, who was intoxicated, saw her, followed her, and attacked her, according to the police.
“He hauled her over to the bushes nearby. used her scarf to rape and strangle her,” stated Manjunath TC, Udham Singh Nagar’s senior superintendent of police. The policeman said that he also took her phone and $3,000 out of her purse.
This occurs in the midst of widespread indignation over the rape and killing of a female trainee physician at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital while she was on duty. Last week, the semi-naked body of the 31-year-old was discovered in the government-run hospital’s seminar hall.
The horrific event has rekindled concerns for increased workplace safety for physicians. Across the nation, resident physicians are demonstrating and calling for a guarantee that the Central Healthcare Protection Act will be enacted to stop assaults on healthcare workers.
