Kolkata, March 3 Tension broke out in Gangarampur area of South Dinajpur district after a patient, who was operated for appendicitis, found out that his right kidney was missing.

Following this, irate locals ransacked the private nursing home and lodged an FIR against the doctors.

“Locals of Gangarampur today created trouble at a nursing home. But we controlled the situation. One of the patients alleged that his kidney was removed in the hospital and likewise lodged a complaint with the police. We have initiated an investigation,” said SP K K Mullick, South Dinajpur.

According to police sources, Nirmal Burman, a second year BA student of Gangarampur college, was admitted at a local nursing home on January 21. He was diagnosed for appendicitis and operated a few days later.

Burman was discharged from the nursing home on January 30. But his condition deteriorated, after which he underwent an ultra-sonography at the nursing home. It was then that he discovered his right kidney was missing. He underwent another ultrasonography from a different nursing home, which too confirmed the same.
