A dispute at Rangpur Medical College Hospital on June 13 escalated after a patient’s death led to allegations of assault and misconduct. The deceased, Nur Nahar Begum, was admitted to the hospital’s cardiology unit early Saturday and died shortly afterward. Her son, Rifat Hossain, allegedly assaulted a doctor following claims of negligence. In response, intern doctors and students halted emergency services for two hours and later demanded punishment for the assault.
Family members accused the interns of withholding the body and preventing them from seeing it. They claimed the body was removed from an ambulance and kept in the morgue until Rifat was forced to perform public squats as punishment. The hospital director, Brigadier General Ashiqur Rahman, denied that the body was intentionally withheld, citing safety concerns amid chaos. He confirmed that legal action would be taken against those involved in the assault.
Three members of parliament later visited the hospital and condemned the incident, emphasizing that humane behavior and professional ethics are integral to medical service.
