Ahmedabad:
A 23-year-old nursing graduate died of heavy blood loss as her boyfriend searched online for remedies in a hotel room in Gujarat. The woman had suffered vaginal tears that led to excessive bleeding, revealed a forensic report.
The boyfriend, 26, has been arrested.
The couple had checked into the hotel in Navsari district on September 23. The woman reportedly suffered vaginal bleeding during sex, which had them panicking. But her boyfriend, instead of calling an ambulance or taking her to a hospital, searched online how to stop the bleeding, the police said.
Reports suggest he tried using a cloth to stop the bleeding, but it did not help and the woman fainted after some time. Petrified, he called a friend to the hotel and took her to a private hospital, from where they were referred to the Civil Hospital.
She was declared dead at the Civil hospital.
Her boyfriend contacted her parents over the phone, but by the time they arrived, she had already died.
The police sent the woman’s body to Surat Civil Hospital for a forensic test, and arrested the man and filed a case against him.
