Ghaziabad: An employee of a private hospital in Ghaziabad allegedly attempted rape on a medical student who was on night shift, police said on Monday.

A sanitation employee, identified as Ravi, stealthily entered into the room from an open window and attempted to rape her, Police Inspector Ashok Shishodia said.
