FIR filed on husband’s complaint
Based on a complaint filed by the woman’s husband, Shivanshu Rai, police registered a case against five doctors — Jyotsna Singh, Apoorva Singh, Deepak Singh, Sanjay Singh and Rohan Gupta — under Section 103(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) on charges of murder.
According to the FIR, the complainant alleged that his wife was admitted around 2 pm for a kidney stone procedure and the hospital charged Rs 1 lakh.
He claimed the doctors had assured a laser-based surgery but instead carried out a major abdominal operation, which allegedly led to her death.
The FIR further alleged that hospital staff advised shifting the patient to Lucknow after the incident, which the complainant claimed was an attempt to conceal what had happened.
Police said efforts are underway to arrest the accused doctors.
Investigation underway
Station House Officer Kshitij Tripathi said further investigation is in progress.
Authorities have not yet commented on the medical aspects of the case, while the allegations made by the family are yet to be independently verified.
Cases of alleged medical negligence often lead to criminal complaints, though legal determination depends on medical evidence, including post-mortem findings and expert opinion.
Police said further action will be taken based on the investigation and medical reports.
