In a disturbing incident in Delhi, a 27-year-old woman doctor employed at Safdarjung Hospital was allegedly raped by Aarav Malik, a delivery agent who posed as an Indian Army Lieutenant. The two connected on Instagram, where Malik maintained communication from April to September 2025, during which he sent photos of himself in a military uniform, falsely claiming to be stationed in Jammu and Kashmir. This deception culminated in a visit to the doctor’s home in the Masjid Moth area, where he allegedly drugged her food and assaulted her. Following the incident, the victim reported the crime on October 16, leading to Malik’s arrest during a police raid in Chhattarpur. Investigators revealed that Malik had purchased the army uniform online to support his false identity, and he is currently facing multiple charges under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including rape and criminal intimidation. This case highlights a worrying trend of impersonation and manipulation facilitated by social media, raising concerns about the safety of individuals, particularly women in vulnerable professions. The incident underscores the urgent need for enhanced awareness and protective measures to combat identity fraud and to ensure the safety of medical professionals, who frequently face unique challenges in their demanding roles. It also emphasizes the importance of a societal commitment to justice and support for victims, alongside the implementation of robust legal frameworks to deter such heinous acts.
