Indore: <\/b><\/p>\n
A junior doctor of the state-run Maharaja Yeshwantrao Hospital (MYH) in Indore was suspended after a purported video showing him slapping an HIV-infected man surfaced on Saturday, an official said.<\/p>\n
The 45-year-old HIV-infected man was sent to MYH from a hospital in Ujjain to treat a broken bone, the official said.<\/p>\n
The junior doctor was angry at not being told by the patient or his attendant about the HIV infection before he began the bone treatment, he said.<\/p>\n
In the purported video of the incident, the junior doctor is seen continuously slapping the patient on the stretcher and abusing him.<\/p>\n
MYH Superintendent Dr Pramendra Thakur said the doctor, posted in the Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, has been suspended with immediate effect.<\/p>\n
MYH is affiliated with the city’s government Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Medical College, whose dean Dr Sanjay Dixit constituted a three-member committee to investigate the case and submit a report within three days, Dr Thakur said.<\/p>\n
“We brought the patient to MYH to treat a broken bone. He is already infected with HIV. The junior doctor beat him up for not telling him about the HIV infection. I was also hit when I intervened to stop the assault,” the patient’s attendant claimed.<\/p>\n
The attendant said he had filed a complaint with the Chief Minister’s helpline.<\/p>\n
