A wheel-bound woman was thrown of a moving Gujarat Express train she was travelling from, in a robbery bid in the compartment for the disabled on Friday. The woman, identified as Nagma Ansari, Mumbai central resident and a mother of two, had a marathon surgery at the BYL Nair hospital in which one of her legs had to be amputated and sustained a fracture in the other and is in a critical condition, reported The Times of India.

On the day of the incident, Ansari, who stays with her husband, was on her way home from a mosque in Dadar where she had gone to accept charity. She boarded the Gujarat Express from Dadar station. A man got into the coach for differently-abled just before the train left the station. When he started closing the doors and windows of the compartment, Ansari became suspicious and asked him the reason of doing so, to which he replied that he is a plumber and was going to do some maintenance work in the coach.
