The Judicial Magisterial first Class ( JFMC) court has directed Pune Police to conduct investigation into the alleged crime committed by Ruby Hall Hospital Pune after the complainant filed by a man against ten doctors of the hospital through city based Supreme Court lawyer Aashutosh Srivastava.

Addressing the press conference at Patrakar Bhavan here, the complainant said he had admitted his wife in Ruby Hall Hospital last year because she had to undergo cesarean delivery. His wife gave birth to a baby girl on the same day and baby was perfectly fit and healthy.

On the day of discharge, a nurse came to his wife and told her that some vaccination had to be given to the baby and she took the baby into a room. But instead, the doctors admitted the baby to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) by keeping the parents in the dark.

After few minutes, Dr Janitha J Gilberth along with other doctors came and said that baby had become sick and that why the baby admitted to the NICU. The parents of the baby got furious and asked the doctors how the hospital could admit their child without their consent. Then doctors started giving unethical and unprofessional answers.

Talking to reporters, Supreme Court Advocate Aashutosh Srivastava said the hospital people had allegedly kept the baby in hospital for five days in the name of new tests and vaccines. The doctors also told parents that an MRI test on the newborn was to be done which was just for sake of money, Mr Shrivastava alleged. 

''When it was refuted by the father of baby considering the MRI test will mean exposure of the baby to radiation which could have lots of adverse consequences, the hospital staff threatened my clients and asked to get the baby discharged immediately. The parents took the baby to other pediatricians in the city where they have been told that test which had been done in hospital was not necessary,'' Mr Shrivastava said.

Mr Shrivastana said even after writing the complaints to Pune Police on various occasions by his clients no action was taken and finally his clients decided to knock the doors of the court through him to get justice against the wrongful treatment given by the clinic. 
Mr Shrivasta said after verifying the complainant’s complaint, evidence on record and the arguments before the court at length, the JFMC Pune, while taking cognizance on the complaint filed by the complainant on August 1, passed an order directing the concerned police authorities to probe into the alleged crime being serious nature.
