A 58-year-old woman died during treatment at PGIMS Rohtak two days after alleging sexual assault by a security guard at Panipat Civil Hospital's CT scan room. The accused, employed by a private firm under a public-private partnership, was arrested. The woman, who had pre-existing health conditions, was locked inside the room during the incident. Authorities have suspended the CT center's services and issued guidelines to ensure a female attendant is present during diagnostic procedures involving female patients.
