Man dies as doctor stealthily removes kidney, eyes during treatment

A dalit in Bihar died after doctors stealthily removed his kidney and eyes during his treatment at a local hospital here, police said today.

Police said the victim Sachen Ram who worked as a farm labour in Punjab was returning to his village by a train but got badly injured while alighting from the train at the Begusarai station on July 13.

He was immediately admitted to the local Buddha hospital in Panta for treatment. A week later, his body was found among the dead at the postmortem room of the Patna Medical College and Hospital, victim’s family alleged today.

The victim family has alleged that the doctors at the Buddha hospital allegedly removed patients’ kidney and eyes before getting him transferred to the PMCH when his condition deteriorated.

“The hospital administration told us to deposit Rs 26,000 for his treatment which we did instantly but later asked for more money. But when he returned with money we were told that the patient had been shifted to the PMCH. On reaching there we found my uncle body at the postmortem room”, victim’s cousin Kiran Ram told the police at the local Patrakarnagar police station where the case was lodged.

The police are investigating the case.link
