Redouble efforts to make public places safer

Severest punishment should be given to the criminals and efforts should be redoubled to make public spaces safe for women

Listen to this article :

This paper ran a chilling front-page report about a man who sexually assaulted a HIV positive woman after tricking her into accompanying him to the terrace of Sion Hospital on the pretext of helping her. The accused supposedly slipped past security personnel approaching the woman by posing as a ward boy from the hospital.

In the report, the dean of the hospital said she was clueless about the incident but would look into it. It is shocking that this impersonator managed to slip past the considerable security present inside Sion hospital. The security has been provided by two agencies but nobody seemed to be aware of the rapist not being an employee of the hospital. Those entering hospital premises must be checked and staffers must have valid ID proof, which has to be scrutinized by the hospital staff.
