2 doctors sexually assaulted, threatened at Hisar Medical College while returning to hostel

"We tried to ignore them but they followed us. When we questioned them, they hurled abuses and threatened to kill us. Scared, we rushed to reach the hostel as soon as possible. The trio came back again and passed comments. When we alerted the guard, they escaped from the main gate of the campus," one of the victim informed TOI. 

The doctors then informed the college authorities about the incident and after this, the police were immediately informed. One of the resident doctors filed a complaint against the trio following which a case was registered. 

The official said CCTV footage collected from near the incident spot was not clear and police were scanning footage from other areas to nab the accused. “We have also questioned some people in the area for clues,” the official said, adding that the accused would be nabbed soon.

After this incident, resident doctors of the medical college have warned of agitation from Tuesday if the accused are not arrested soon, as per TOI news report. Other trainee women doctors expressed concern over security inside the hostel and college campuses. Expressing frustration, they have claimed that they don't feel safe although the central government gave assurances about security in the workplace. 

Officials said the medical college administration and police have stepped up security at the hospital and hostel.
