According to news agency PTI, the incident occurred on Sunday while the victim of 25 years was to attend an examination. The victim was called by the accused to the old deserted boys hostel, city superintendent of police Ashok Jadon said.

The woman was scared and raped when she came to this building. Eventually, the victim comes out with the story when she files a complaint at the Kampu police station.

The accused has been arrested and further inquiry is continuing.

This incident supposedly occurred in Gwalior some months after a 31-year-old post-graduate doctor was brutally raped and murdered by a civic volunteer inside RG Kar Medical College and Hospital's seminar hall in Kolkata. Police recovered the body of a woman doctor from inside the premises on August 9.

Kolkata police arrested civic volunteer Sanjay Roy, the principal suspect in the incident. In compliance with a Calcutta high court directive, the investigation transferred to the CBI. The central agency also arrested former college principal Sandeep Ghosh and Tala police station officer Abhijeet Mondal under charges of trying to destroy evidence in this case, with Ghosh himself being under investigation by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) over financial irregularities during his tenure, based on a case registered by the CBI.

The CBI has filed a chargesheet against prime accused Sanjay Roy for the rape and murder of the on-duty doctor. A Kolkata court freed Ghosh and Mondal as the agency did not file the charges against them within 90 days.

The Joint Platform of Doctors (JPD) of several doctor's associations has voiced displeasure with the slow pace of investigation and is planning to initiate a series of agitation from December last year.
