"The woman was admitted to the ICU where the accused committed the crime on Monday night. The victim was in a semi-conscious state and she resisted as much she could," DCP West Pradeep Mohan Sharma said.

The next morning, when her husband met her, she informed him about the incident by writing on a paper following which he lodged a complaint with the police.
