An audio clip that recently went viral on social media allegedly captures a senior doctor of a government hospital in Maharashtra's Latur district instructing a colleague to ''kill'' a COVID-19 patient during the pandemic in 2021. In response, police have registered an FIR against the doctor and launched an investigation into the matter.
The recording is a purported conversation between the accused, Dr Shashikant Deshpande, who was then additional district surgeon at the Udgir Government Hospital in Latur, and Dr Shashikant Dange, who was posted at a Covid-19 care centre, news agency PTI reported.
The clip, now widely circulated on social media, is purportedly of the time during the COVID-19 crisis peak in 2021 when hospitals were crowded with patients and resources were scarce.
The patient, Kausar Fatima, wife of Dayami Ajimoddin Gaussoddin (53), had later recovered from the disease.
