Holding that the doctor was at lapse in conveying the seriousness of the case to the parent which resulted in the 11-year-old patient losing his scrotum, the Kerala State Commission for Protection of Child Rights has recently passed an order directing the duty doctor of the Taluk Hospital in Vythiri to pay Rs 50,000 from her salary to the child.

The order was issued by the commission after they sought reports from the District Medical Officer (DMO) and District Child Protection Officer.
