Woman threatened with ‘rape’ at hospital

Staff says complainant got aggressive when asked to stop filming medical procedure.

New Delhi: A woman was allegedly attacked and threatened with rape in front of her husband when she took her grandmother for treatment to the Safdarjung Hospital. The couple alleged that some hospital staff manhandled them and issued a rape threat to the woman and physically assaulted them on Friday. However, the hospital authority also blamed the man for provoking the hospital staff as he was allegedly caught filming the procedure of reviving a patient in the emergency ward despite being repeatedly asked not to, which trigged the incident.
