The investigation committee has not found the truth behind the death of a patient due to medical negligence by a doctor at Jamila Memorial Hospital in Sonaimuri, Noakhali.

Recently, on the instructions of Noakhali Civil Surgeon Dr. Anwar Hossain, a three-member investigation committee has been formed headed by Sonaimuri Upazila Health and Family Planning Officer Dr. Israt Jahan. The other two members of the committee are - Sonaimuri Upazila Health Complex RMO Dr. Riaz Uddin Hospital's Anesthesia Department Doctor. Dr. Shafiq. The committee has been asked to submit an investigation report as soon as possible.

Dr. Riaz Uddin, member secretary of the investigation committee and resident medical officer (RMO) of Sonaimuri Upazila Health Complex, said that the initial investigation did not find any evidence of wrong treatment by the doctor at Jamila Hospital. The doctor on duty at that hospital did not give the patient any treatment or anesthesia. The patient died after becoming restless. He will submit the investigation report very soon.
It is worth mentioning that the deceased Parvez, a resident of Badsha Mia Munshi Bari in the upazila, had been working as a driver abroad for 15 years. He returned to the country from Qatar a few days ago. He was admitted to Jamila Memorial Hospital last Friday afternoon for a tonsillectomy. The patient was taken to the operation theater around 10 pm. The doctor on duty declared him dead soon after.
