FIR against young doctors: police directed to complete investigation

26 Jul, 2012

The Lahore High Court (LHC) here on Wednesday directed Gawalmandi police to complete investigation of Fahad murder case against young doctors by July 31. The court passed these directions in a petition praying to the court to quash the FIR. Earlier counsel of Young Doctors Association (YDA) Raja Zulqarnain said that the case in question was registered against the young doctors only to stop them from observing strike.
He said all the doctors nominated in the FIR were working at Services Hospital while the alleged occurrence took place at Mayo Hospital. He alleged that Punjab government resorted to political victimisation against the young doctors.
Representing the complainant, Shamimur Rehman Malik argued that the accused doctors forcibly pull the drip out of the vein of Fahad and other children. The court adjourned the proceedings as the arguments were in progress and directed the investigating officer to complete investigation by the next hearing.
