Doctors of a private hospital, who were allegedly abused and manhandled by the relatives of a patient over missing medicines last week, have registered a First Information Report (FIR) with the Delhi Police on Monday against four unknown people, including a woman.

According to a senior police official, a cross case has been filed in the matter. "We have also registered a FIR against the doctors in which the complainant woman has alleged that the doctors had misbehaved and manhandled her and her relatives in the hospital premises on November 6," said the senior police official

"We have received complaint from doctors and from the woman also. We are investigating the matter," the senior police official added. 

According to the complaint filed by doctors, three people came to the casualty department of Jaipur Golden Hospital on Friday and started arguing with the doctor on duty.

"They said they had left medicines at a particular place three days ago when they had come to admit their patient but now the medicines were missing. We tried to explain that as the duty staff has changed, it could not be traced immediately and that it will looked into and they will be informed," a doctor claimed.

The people then started started abusing the doctor and thrashed him. Another doctor came to his defence and they beat him up too, the doctor claimed. "Our security staff on duty tried to control the situation but they were manhandled as well. Later, a fourth person joined them in beating up the doctors," the security officer of the hospital said in the police complaint.
