Suntikoppa, Nov. 7: Alleging that a youth died due to doctor's negligence, the family members of the deceased youth and the public staged a protest.
After the post-mortem examination, the body of the deceased youth was brought to Suntikoppa in an ambulance and parked in front of the clinic, expressing their anger against the doctors. They demanded that the doctors and the concerned Health and Family Welfare Officer arrive at the spot.
Suntikoppa Police Station Officer Mohanraj and staff, Taluk Health Medical Officer Dr. Indudar, RCH Dr. Madhusudan and Suntikoppa Primary Health Center Medical Officer Dr. Mehroz arrived at the spot on behalf of the District Family and Health Welfare Officer. A notice will be issued to the doctors asking for the reason. A case has already been registered against the case. Dr. Indudar informed that further action will be taken after the autopsy report comes.
Vinod (34), son of Swami and Sundari, a resident of Suntikoppa, came to the clinic near Suntikoppa Kannada Circle on Thursday due to hip pain and hand pain. The doctor gave him two injections one after the other and advised him to go home and rest. Accordingly, Vinod came home and was extremely tired. The lame people took him to the Madikeri District Hospital, but the doctors at the hospital declared Vinod dead.
Vinod's body was brought back home after the postmortem. Shocked by Vinod's death, the family members protested by placing the body on the national highway, alleging that Vinod died due to the negligence of the doctors.
Kushalnagar Circle Inspector Dinesh, who rushed to the spot, tried to pacify the protesters. After some time, they brought the body cremation box and placed it in front of the clinic and started protesting. Additional District Police Officer Barike Dinesh Kumar reached the spot and tried to persuade them, but it did not work. As a further part of the attempt to negotiate, the protesters were taken to the police station and proceeded to the funeral meeting.
At the beginning of the protest, Gram Panchayat President P.R. Sunil Kumar, Vice President Shivamma Mahesh and members, Panchayat Development Officer V.G. Lokesh made a lot of efforts and persuasion to pacify the protesters, but to no avail. Appropriate security was provided by deploying Kushalnagar City, Madikeri Rural and Traffic Police in the security work.
Finally, the family members agreed to conduct the last rites of Vinod with the mediation of the police and the Gram Panchayat. In addition, the protest was called off after a written agreement was reached to hold a meeting with the family members in the presence of doctors at the police station on the 13th, informed police officials and Gram Panchayat President P.R. Sunil Kumar.
