Fertility doctor arrested for raping patient in the clinic

A doctor in Thane has been arrested by the crime branch on the alleged charges of raping a patient.

The police said the accused doctor is assisting another surrogacy specialist doctor who runs a fertility centre in the Naupada area and has been in practice for around 10 years.

According to police, the 21-year-old victim is a housewife and a resident of Dharavi and had gone to the doctor attached to the fertility centre to get surrogate services. “On Friday around 7.55 pm, while she was being examined in a room, the accused doctor applied some kind of gel to her private part, stripped her naked and raped her,” said the officer quoting the complaint by the victim.

“When the accused forced himself on her, the woman raised an alarm. However, the doctor is alleged to have overpowered her, held her mouth and raped her,” the officer added.

The victim also stated in her complaint that the doctor threatened that if she tells anyone about the incident, she will face the consequences.
