DHAKA, Jan 21, 2024 (BSS) - The High Court (HC) today issued a rule, asking
authorities concerned to explain as to why it shall not pass an order to give
one Md Eusuf Mazumder Shakil, who allegedly lost both his kidneys as a result
of wrong treatment at Labaid Specialized Hospital, Taka one crore in
compensation.

A High Court division bench of Justice KM Kamrul Kader and Justice Khizir
Hayat passed the order after holding primary hearing on a writ petition filed
in this regard.

The court also ordered Director General of Directorate General of Health
Services (DGHS) to conduct a probe within two months into the matter,
petitioner's lawyer Advocate Eklas Uddin Bhuiyan told BSS.

"The victim filed the writ against Professor Dr HR Harun of the hospital. The
petitioners alleged that only because of the wrong treatment of the doctor at
the hospital, both the kidneys of the victim have been damaged completely and
now he has to go for kidney transplant for sure to live," Advocate Bhuiyan
added.
