A 38-year-old business owner and resident of Nalgonda was allegedly subjected to an attempted sexual assault and robbery by a taxi driver near Shamshabad, on the outskirts of Hyderabad. The incident occurred on the night of September 26. According to police reports, the victim had boarded a taxi in Jadcherla to travel to Hyderabad. The driver diverted from the intended route near the Thondupally toll plaza and stopped plaza, stopping the vehicle on at a medical shop on the ORR service road before pulling over in a deserted area near Kothwalguda. The driver allegedly attempted to assault molest the woman, who managed to escape by raising an alarm. Following the incident, the driver fled the scene in the vehicle, taking Rs 60,000 in cash from the victim's bag. The Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) police have registered a case under relevant sections Sections 74, 318(4), and 303(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and (BNS). Special teams have been formed special teams to locate and apprehend the suspect. While the incident occurred in an area that gained national attention in 2019 due to the Disha case, authorities noted there is no connection between the two events.
