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.
