Doctor Fatally Attacked: Son’s Delayed Arrival at Father’s Operation Leads to Tragic Confrontation in Hospital, Caught on CCTV

A distressing incident occurred at the Civil Hospital in Ahmedabad, where a doctor was brutally attacked by a young man who kicked him. Following the altercation, security personnel intervened, attempting to restrain the assailant, who also tried to assault another doctor nearby. 

The entire incident was captured on CCTV footage, highlighting the severity of the situation. Such violence against medical professionals underscores the urgent need for enhanced security measures to ensure their safety while serving the community. Authorities must swiftly investigate the matter and take necessary steps to prevent such incidents in the future.

Police Arrest Assailant Following Assault on Doctors

Following reports received by the police, it has been confirmed that the assailant involved in the assault on doctors at hospital has been arrested. Details reveal that the relative of a patient physically attacked a doctor in response to an operation-related issue. When another doctor intervened to assist, they were also subjected to aggression and pushed. 

The incident occurred yesterday at 11 am at the Civil Hospital. Prompt action by the authorities led to the detention of the patient’s relative for further investigation into the matter. Such incidents underscore the importance of maintaining a safe environment for healthcare professionals and the consequences of resorting to violence in medical settings.

Son Attacks Doctor in Anger over Delayed Operation

According to hospital sources, a patient was advised to arrive at 7 am for a scheduled operation, but arrived at 11 am instead. Consequently, the doctor determined that the operation could not proceed as planned due to the patient’s tardiness. This decision, although based on professional judgment and safety concerns, resulted in an altercation when the patient’s son reacted angrily, resorting to physical violence by slapping the doctor. 

Furthermore, another relative of the patient raised their hand towards the doctor and engaged in verbal aggression. However, such actions are not only unacceptable but also have serious legal ramifications. It’s essential to recognize that healthcare professionals prioritize patient safety and adhere to hospital protocols, and resorting to violence only exacerbates the situation. Instead, effective communication and understanding between patients, families, and medical staff can lead to a more satisfactory resolution.
