Murder Charges Filed Against LabAid Doctors for Alleged Medical Malpractice
A murder case was filed on Monday against six doctors and one staff member from LabAid Specialized Hospital in Dhanmondi, as they stand accused of causing the death of HSC candidate Tahsin Hossain due to alleged wrong treatment. Tahsin’s father, Monir Hossain, lodged the case with Metropolitan Magistrate Farah Diba Chandar’s court, prompting the court to direct Dhanmondi Police Station to register the complaint as an FIR.
The individuals named in the case are Dr. Md Saifullah, Dr. Maqsood, Dr. Sabbir Ahmed, Dr. Mosharraf, Dr. Kanak, Dr. A. M. Shamim, and Md. Shah Jahan. Faisal Bin Asad, the plaintiff’s lawyer, confirmed the filing of the case.
According to the statement provided, Monir Hossain sought medical assistance for his ailing son, Tahsin, and brought him to LabAid Hospital on March 27. Dr. Saifullah advised immediate hospital admission for Tahsin. On March 28, Tahsin underwent surgery; however, his condition began to worsen following the procedure.
Upon inquiry, Dr. Maksud informed the plaintiff that the initial surgery was unsuccessful and that a subsequent operation would be required for Tahsin’s treatment. Consequently, Tahsin underwent a second surgery on April 6, but his health continued to deteriorate.
After three months of treatment, Tahsin tragically passed away on June 23. During this period, he received a total of 144 blood transfusions. The family was presented with a medical bill of approximately Tk 27 lakh by the hospital authorities.
Expressing his dissatisfaction, Monir Hossain stated, “I have repeatedly asked Dr. Saifullah about my son’s condition, but he could never provide a satisfactory answer. I am completely certain that my son received improper treatment.”
The filing of the murder case against the doctors involved highlights the gravity of the allegations and the need for a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding Tahsin Hossain’s untimely demise. The legal process will now unfold as authorities delve into the details to ascertain accountability in this tragic incident.
