Even after a marginal improvement, the Unnao Rape Survivor is still unconscious and is relying on a ventilator, said doctors of the King George Medical University in Lucknow.
The 19-year-old rape survivor and her lawyer were rushed to the King George Medical University in Lucknow after their car was rammed by a truck on Rae Bareli on Sunday.
The two aunts of the 19-year-old girl were killed in the accident.
Dr. Sandeep Tiwari, the head and in-charge of the trauma department of the King George Medical University, said, “The rape survivor has sustained multiple fractures. Today there was a very slight improvement in her condition, but this cannot be termed as satisfactory. She is still unconscious.”
Dr. Tiwari said a CT scan was conducted on the head of the 19-year-old.
Dr. Tiwari added, “However, a head injury cannot be ruled out as many head injuries are not detected in the CT scan. The condition of the rape survivor is stable, and a team of doctors is monitoring her 24 hours. She is on a ventilator.”
Kuldeep Singh Sengar, a BJP Lawmaker, is already in jail after he was charged for raping the teenager in 2017.
Kuldeep is now charged with murder after the car of the teenager was rammed by a truck on Sunday.
Dr. Tiwari said that the lawyer’s condition is now stable.
Dr. Tiwari added, “The injured advocate was removed from the ventilator for some time on Wednesday as well, and during this period, his condition was stable. He was later put on the ventilator.”
The CBI (Central Bureau of Investigation) is currently investigating the accident.
Many believe that the collision was done with an intention to kill the aunts, lawyer, and the rape survivor.
Dr. Tiwari was also asked if the hospital has plans to bring in medical experts from different hospitals, he replied with “There is no shortage of specialist doctors at the KGMU, and if needed, we can call doctors from other hospitals in Lucknow – the SGPGI and the Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital.”
