Srinagar: The police on Friday regretted behaviour by a police officer against the doctor on duty at an emergency hospital in Qazigund along the Srinagar-Jammu highway. The INS had exclusively reported the incident.
“In reference to the Qazigund incident, we regret it and at the same time assure that necessary action shall be taken into the matter,” a police spokesman said in a statement issued here.
“Officer allegedly involved in the incident has been directed to report to the DIG office SKR for an enquiry,” the spokesman said.
As purported already, the police officer on Thursday evening threaten a doctor on duty at the emergency hospital after he refused to provide medical opinion without all documents regarding death of a 100-year-old man in a road accident in May this year.
“Talk to me courteously. I will drag you out ….I will see you tonight,” the police officer was seen telling the doctor, Dr Nasser, in a video which was shot of the incident.
“The police officer, whether he is a DSP or SHO I don’t know, was seeking medical opinion in connection with the case. A few police constables approached me yesterday also and this (Thursday) morning and I told them to bring all the documents for the opinion,” Dr Naseer had told INS.
“The police officer came and used rude language. He threatened me of implicating in false case and said that ‘I will see you tonight’,” the doctor said.
The case about which the police was seeking the medical opinion pertains to death of one Mohammad Ashoor Beigh (100) son of Abdul Samad Beigh in May this year. The police officer could not be contacted for his comment.
