AIIMS doctor summoned by court for rape on pretext of marriage

However, the court has not issued summons to the brother and two sisters of accused Deepak Gupta.

The court said that perusal of the record shows that there are no specific allegations against suspected persons as the marriage ceremony between the complainant and accused, Dr. Deepak Gupta, was never solemnized.

"There appears no role of the suspected persons in the commission of the aforesaid offence. Thus, suspected persons are not being summoned," the court said.

Accused Deepak Gupta has been summoned for February 26 through the concerned SHO.

Medical Dialogues team had earlier reported that Kunnamangalam Judicial First Class Magistrate Court sent a summons to four accused health workers, including two doctors in a case of medical negligence after forceps were allegedly left inside the abdomen of a female patient during a Caesarean section at Government Medical College Hospital (GMCH) Kozhikode in 2017. The court, responding to a complaint filed by a resident of Adivaram, has scheduled the accused health workers to appear on April 19, 2024. The police had filed a charge sheet on December 29, 2023, based on the complaint.
