In an incident reminiscent of the dramatic opening of Chiranjeevi's
Tagore, doctors at the Care Hospital in Nampally have allegedly "treated" a dead patient, thereby hoodwinking the kin of the patient.
Sobbing relatives of the patient told the media that the doctors had put him on some machines and kept claiming he would be cured. However, it was discovered today that the patient had died some time ago. It is not clear when exactly the death took place, but the family suspects he died about 3 days ago.
The patient even ran up a hefty Rs. 5 lakh bill.
3 doctors have been arrested in this regard, and the body of the patient has been shifted to the Osmania Hospital for post-mortem.
