Assam Medical Student Attacked at Sikkim Manipal Hostel

The incident has been captured in CCTV footage, in which it can be clearly seen that some students are attacking another student. Although a security guard was trying to save the student, however, he was overpowered by the attackers.

According to NortheastLive Media, the Sikkim Manipal administration is yet to issue any official statement on the incident. Along with this, the Gangtok SP has confirmed that no FIR has been filed yet, but assured that the case will be thoroughly investigated to find out the facts.

Moreover, the Manipal administration has also claimed to have no prior knowledge of the incident. However, the silence of the authorities continues to raise questions. Meanwhile, the condition of the student has not been disclosed, and further information is awaited as the situation unfolds.

Few months back, Medical Dialogues reported a case where a female Compulsory Rotating Medical Intern (CRMI) from Government Sivaganga Medical College Hospital (SMCH) was allegedly ambushed by an unidentified man while returning to her hostel after completing her night duty at the hospital.

According to her colleagues, the attacker, believed to be an outsider, attempted to gag her with a piece of cloth. However, she was rescued when a relative of a hospital staff member, who witnessed the incident, tried to confront the accused on his bike, but the accused fled the scene.
