“We are scanning footage from CCTV cameras in the hospital for further clues,” he said. Senior officials said it was unclear as to what happened until the victim divulged further details and her sister, another victim in the case, was found.
Meanwhile, mild tension prevailed at the Chilkalguda police station when members of women's rights groups and BJP Mahila Morcha protested on the premises. State Women Commission chairperson Sunitha Lakshma Reddy, who enquired about the details of the case from hospital authorities and police, assured all help to the family.
The complainant had alleged that she and her sister were confined in a room by the lab technician, who drugged them and raped them.
