Panaji: Porvorim Police on Tuesday captured Minesh Narvestar, who was accused of slapping the gynecologist after his newborn niece’s death last week, even when he accused the last of the arrest.
Before giving up to the police, Narvestar accused the gynecologist Dr.
Amol Tilve negligence while doing C-section on his sister.
“The baby died of a doctor’s carelessness or he (tilve) must prove how the baby died,” Alleged Narvestar.
He said that when he took his sister to the hospital, Tilve suggested C-section due to complications.
“I called my brother-in-law and my approval was given.
The doctor came out of the workspace 40 minutes later with the baby and took him to another room.
When we asked about the condition of the baby, he said that a newborn had a heart problem and that they would look after one hour And then tell us what to do next, “he said.
However, in a few minutes, he told us to take a baby to the hospital in Mapapa without telling us about the condition of the baby.
“We took the baby to Mapusa’s hospital and the doctor there told us that the baby was in fourth grade brain damage.
He even asked us whether doctor (tilve) told us about the condition of the baby.
He advised us to bring a newborn baby to GMC, “said Narvestar.
The doctors at GMC tried their best to save the baby, but they could not.
If he (Tilve) advised us to shift the baby to GMC immediately, instead of wasting time we went to a private hospital, we could save him, “he said.
Narvestar demanded that Porvorim police also have to register pine against Tilve and ask the Medical Council Goa (GMC) to start the action against the doctor because of the alleged medical negligence.
