"The victim said she was undergoing an operation for a stomach ailment. Instead of covering her whole body and only keeping the part being operated upon open, she was covered from only waist up. The doctor took advantage of the situation and clicked photos of the woman's genitals. He then circulated the picture to Ansari and Khan," said a police officer from Bhiwandi police station.

"The woman could listen to the discussion and lewd comments. She also saw them clicking pictures. Badole's wife, who was also in the operation theatre, also passed a lewd comment. The woman then informed her husband," the officer added.
