The Mumbai police arrested two people for allegedly molesting a woman patient at a private hospital in Mumbai Saturday.
The accused, one of them a fake doctor, were arrested on charges of molesting the woman in the out-patient department (OPD) of the hospital, an officer said.
He said the victim’s husband, who was in the waiting area, sensed something amiss after she did not come out of the OPD for a long time. He caught the accused molesting his wife when he went to check on her, the officer added.
The couple created a ruckus at the hospital and approached the police, he said.
During the probe, the police found that one of the accused, who worked as a doctor at the hospital, did not hold any medical degree.
The duo has been arrested under Sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), Maharashtra Medical Practitioners Act, and Maharashtra Nursing Home Act, while the hospital owner, who has also been named as an accused, is on the run.
