Security incidents at AIIMS Delhi

Overview

Incidents involving security personnel at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) in New Delhi have led to disciplinary and legal actions.

Initially, the institution terminated a security guard, Dhananjay Singh, following reports of inappropriate behavior toward a female patient. AIIMS filed a police complaint and penalized the private security firm involved, reaffirming a “zero-tolerance policy towards sexual harassment and misbehaviour against women.”

Subsequently, a separate incident occurred where a guard, Karim Jeetji, was allegedly assaulted by a man on the hospital premises. Following the release of video footage showing the altercation, the assailant issued a public apology, stating he ‘became violent and inappropriate’. The employing firm, SIS Group Enterprises, condemned the conduct and called for the public to treat security staff with dignity.
