Patient beats ’attender’ to death
MANGALORE: In a strange incident, a patient who had undergone circumcision and was undergoing treatment at the District Government Wenlock Hospital here has been charged with murdering his caretaker there. The incident happened late on Tuesday. Hospital authorities said Prashanth, 33, was admitted to hospital few days ago and was in the special ward. Prashanth, who was addicted to drugs, asked his caretaker - Kanthappa, 44, to get some drugs.
When Kanthappa reportedly refused to give him the drugs, the accused started physically assaulting the former. In the melee, Kanthappa collapsed on the floor and doctors, who present at the spot, immediately treated him for his condition. The victim however succumbed later on, hospital authorities said. During the incident, Prashanth is also learnt to have assaulted two security guards deployed by the hospital authorities.
Kanthappa is a resident of Panambur. However, police said they are not aware of reason behind the squabble between Kanthappa and Prashanth. "We are not aware how Kanthappa and Prashanth are acquainted," said C N Diwakar, police inspector, Mangalore South police station.
"We have recovered a treatment slip indicating that Kanthappa too had undergone treatment at the hospital with a Panambur address on it," Diwakar said.
The exact cause of Kanthappa’s death will be known once the post-mortem reports are available, Diwakar said, adding that there is doubt if the blows rained by Prashanth could have caused the death or the victim died due to cardiac arrest. Prashanth has been kept under police guard at the hospital and police will take him in to custody once he is discharged. A case has been registered under section 302 (punishment for murder) of IPC.
