NEW DELHI: A 34-year-old woman who was working as a nurse at a nursing home in northeast Delhi’s Sundar Nagri area was allegedly raped by a doctor of the same nursing home two years back, a senior Delhi Police official said on Thursday.

The accused doctor, identified as Dr. Noorul Hassan, was apprehended from Faizabad in Uttar Pradesh and two days later the police arrested him in the present case. According to a senior Delhi Police official, the victim woman on June 13 reported that she used to work as a nurse at Alihat Nursing Home in Sundar Nagri with the accused Dr. Noorul Hassan.

“In August 2021, Dr. Noorul Hassan raped her and made a nude video. He also took Rs 7 lakh from her,” the senior police officer said. Accordingly, based on the complaint of the victim woman, the police registered an FIR against the accused doctor under sections 376 (rape) and 328 (causing hurt by means of poison, etc., with intent to commit an offence) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

The senior officer said that the victim woman was married 15 years ago and has two daughters. “As of now she is separated from her husband. Moreover, the Alihat Nursing home had also been shut down some time back,” the senior police officer said, adding that further investigation into the two-year-old is underway.
