Ambulance driver and aide accused of molesting patient's wife, leading to his death in Uttar Pradesh
Lucknow: A neurology patient died after an ambulance driver and his aide allegedly molested his wife, forcibly removed his oxygen mask, and threw him out of the vehicle, according to a complaint filed by the victim's wife.
The incident occurred while the woman was transporting her husband from a hospital in Indiranagar, Lucknow, to their home in Siddharth Nagar district on August 29. The couple had hired the ambulance from the Ghazipur (Indiranagar) police station area after being unable to meet the hospital expenses.
During the journey, the driver allegedly coerced the woman to sit in the front seat to avoid police checks. Once seated, the driver and his companion reportedly began molesting her. Despite the victim's protests and her husband's attempts to intervene, the assailants continued their actions.
As the situation escalated, the driver and his aide stopped the ambulance near Chhawani police station, removed the patient's oxygen mask, and threw him out of the vehicle. The woman's brother, who was accompanying them, was held hostage in the driver's cabin.
The assailants allegedly looted Rs 10,000 in cash, the woman's jewelry, and other belongings before fleeing the scene. The woman managed to contact emergency services, and her husband was later admitted to Basti district hospital by a 108 ambulance. He was subsequently referred to the Medical College in Gorakhpur, where he succumbed to his condition.
A case has been registered based on the woman's complaint, confirmed ADCP Jitendra Dubey.

Iran’s Fars reports missiles hit US warship near Hormuz after it ignored warnings from IRGC
Tehran/Washington: Iran’s Fars News Agency has reported that two missiles struck a US Navy vessel near Jask in the Strait of Hormuz, citing local sources.
According to the report, the vessel was hit after it allegedly ignored warnings from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to halt.
There has been no official confirmation from US authorities on the reported incident so far.
The development comes shortly after US President Donald Trump said Washington would begin “Project Freedom” to guide stranded ships through the Strait of Hormuz.
US Central Command said the operation would involve 15,000 military personnel along with more than 100 land- and sea-based aircraft, warships and drones.
Further details about the reported strike and any damage or casualties remain unclear.
