KOLKATA: A doctor in his mid-40s was arrested on Tuesday for allegedly raping a 26-year-old female patient at Hasnabad in North 24Parganas.
The accused reportedly injected the victim with sedatives to render her unconscious, filmed the sexual assault, and then extorted Rs 4 lakh by threatening to release the footage on social media. He allegedly continued to sexually assault her multiple times, using the video to blackmail her.
The incident came to light only after the survivor, accompanied by her husband, who works in Bihar, lodged an FIR with Hasnabad PS against accused, Nur Alam Sardar, on Monday evening.
Police arrested the accused from his clinic-cum-residence at Hasnabad’s Barunhat. “The accused, a registered medical practitioner, was arrested for allegedly raping his patient after rendering her unconscious. An investigation is underway in this connection. The woman’s confidential statement was recorded, and the accused was produced in court,” Basirhat SP Hossain Mehedi Rehman said.
Sardar was remanded in police custody for four days after being produced in a Basirhat court on Tuesday afternoon.
In her complaint, the woman alleged that a few days ago, when her husband was out of the state, she went to the doctor for treatment. He then tranquillised and raped her, she said.
(The victim’s identity has not been revealed to protect her privacy as per Supreme Court directives on cases related to sexual assault)
