PALGHAR: A doctor employed at the Tarapur Atomic Power Station (TAPS) Colony hospital was arrested on Wednesday for allegedly mowing down a 73-year-old woman who was visiting the hospital for treatment. The accident occurred outside the hospital premises and the woman died before doctors could treat her, said sources.
Chayalata Aarekar, along with her spouse Vishwanath Aarekar—who reside in Ghivali village—were at the hospital within the TAPS colony for his medical care. When Chayalata moved beyond the primary entryway of the facility, she was struck by a vehicle operated by Dr. AK Das and ended up being dragged approximately 10-12 feet. Bystanders promptly came to assist and managed to free her from under the car by raising one end. Despite immediate admission to the hospital, she succumbed prior to receiving any therapeutic intervention.
