HMC nurse accuses DMS of sexual harassment

PESHAWAR: A nurse of the Hayatabad Medical Complex on Saturday accused the hospital’s deputy medical superintendent (DMS) of sexual harassment.
Addressing a press conference at the Peshawar Press Club, Aleema Ghani, the nurse, accused DMS Dr Razaq of making indecent demand from her.
“When I refused to fulfill his demand, the DMS expelled me from the hostel and also registered a first information report (FIR) against me,” she added.
The nurse alleged that one day the DMS called her to his office and wanted to target her to satiate his lust but on her refusal, he resorted to revengeful tactics. She informed that the matter had been reported to the director general health but he also sided with the DMS.
She said she was facing persecution and requested Chief Minister Pervez Khattak and high-ups of the department to take note of the matter and provide her justice.
