New Delhi: Police in Delhi have lodged an FIR against the relative of a patient at the AIIMS hospital, following a complaint by a resident doctor that he was manhandled by the man.
"We had received the complaint yesterday. The complainant, who is a resident doctor posted at the emergency ward of AIIMS, had also submitted us the footage of CCTV camera of AIIMS emergency. We lodged an FIR today," a senior police officer said.
According to the FIR, Dr Pawan Kumar has alleged that yesterday he was on duty at Ultrasound room, when one Roshan Lal Bhati brought his father at the Ultrasound room at around 10 am with a requisition for kidney urinary bladder ultrasound.
"I told him to go to the ultrasound requesting doctor for a review of the indication of the ultrasound," Dr Kumar said in the complaint.
According to the complaint, Mr Bhati then brought along a guard posted at emergency to "request me to do the ultrasound".
"I made him understand that probably the scan is not indicated and even went till the main counter of the surgical casualty to discuss the case with my clinical colleagues, Dr Kumar said.
When told that the ultrasound could only be done after a review, Mr Bhati allegedly got abusive, physically aggressive and slapped Dr Kumar, he said.
Describing it as a "highly condemnable and shameful act", the AIIMS Resident Doctors' Association has demanded strict action against the accused.
