Doctors flee clinic after boy dies in OT

Our Correspondent, Dinajpur
For the last couple of days, Siam was suffering from throat pain. Though his mother tried natural remedies, it did not help much.
On Wednesday, his worried mother, Lucky Begum, took him to Central Clinic in Rangpur from their Khamarbari village in Gaibandha.
They saw Dr Abdul Hye at the clinic. He said Siam should have an operation immediately, which would cost around Tk20,000.
But she did not have enough money on her. So, the mother and son returned home. Then on Saturday, the family came back to the clinic after arranging the money.
A team of doctors took Siam to the operation theatre (OT) around 5:00pm for surgery.
The surgery was supposed to take not more than 30 minutes, and according to US based organisation Medscape, tonsil removal (tonsillectomy) is considered one of the most common major surgical procedures performed on children.
Meanwhile, the family waited outside the OT patiently. Thirty minutes went by. Siam's mother started worrying. But her husband, Rezaul Haque, a grocer, assured her that her son will be back in her arms in no time.
But no one was ready for the news they heard from the staff. Siam had died during surgery. He was only six-year-old.
The family looked for the doctors right away but they were notallowed to get inside the OT.
Enraged, some of them broke the windows and doors of the hospital demanding an explanation. They alleged that Siam died due to surgical errors. Meanwhile, rather than explaining what happened during the surgery, the doctors, nurses and staff reportedly fled the clinic.
Being informed, law enforcers from Rangpur Sadar Police Station went to the clinic and brought the situation under control, said OC Babul Mia of the police station. No case was filed yet The body was sent to Rangpur Medical College Hospital foran autopsy.
This correspondent tried to reach the clinic authorities for comments, but their phones were found switched off.
The OC said police arrested Dr Abdul Hye on Saturday night.
Meanwhile, Rangpur Clinic Owners' Association announced an indefinite work stoppage from today until the doctor is released, said its Convener Dr AKM Nurunnabi.
