Bihar Woman Gang-Raped in Ambulance After Fainting During Home Guard Test
In a deeply disturbing incident that has sparked outrage and calls for justice, a woman in Bihar was gang-raped inside a moving ambulance after fainting during a physical test for Home Guard recruitment. The case has sent shockwaves across the country, raising urgent questions about safety, accountability, and the very systems meant to serve and protect.
Collapse During Physical Test
The young woman, an aspirant for the Bihar Home Guard service, had been participating in a physical examination as part of the recruitment process. Exhausted and dehydrated, she reportedly collapsed midway through the test. In response, she was placed in an ambulance for medical attention — a space that should have represented safety and care.
Assault in Transit
Tragically, the ambulance ride turned into a nightmare. Instead of receiving medical aid, the woman was sexually assaulted while en route to the hospital. According to initial reports, the accused include the ambulance driver and at least one accomplice. The woman later narrated the horrific ordeal to medical staff and authorities, leading to the immediate launch of a criminal investigation.
Investigation Underway
Local police have registered a case of gang rape and have taken the accused into custody. A medical examination has been conducted, and forensic teams are examining the ambulance for evidence. Authorities have assured swift action, with Bihar DGP and other top officials monitoring the case closely.

Women’s rights organizations have condemned the incident as a gross failure of the system and called for urgent reforms to ensure the safety of women during government-led recruitment drives and public health services.
A Betrayal of Trust
An ambulance — universally regarded as a symbol of life-saving care — became the setting for a heinous crime. This betrayal of trust not only devastates the survivor and her family but also highlights a pressing need to overhaul security measures in sensitive public systems.
