Doctor’s Wrong Prescription Kills 4-Year Old Girl in Karachi

In a shocking turn of events, a 4-year old girl died in Korangi, Karachi last night after a local doctor advised a wrong injection for her illness.

The MBBS doctor has been identified as Muhammad Imran and the police sources suggest that he has been sent behind bars for his negligence.

Razia’s parents took her to Dr. Imran due to a high fever. The deceased’s family claims that their daughter died due to the injection which was prescribed by the doctor.

The Police has already started investigating the matter of the minor’s death, however, the bereaved’s family didn’t allow a post-mortem despite taking the body to the nearby medical facility.

According to the details, Razia’s condition deteriorated following the injection and she died soon after.

Incidents like this are more common these days as Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) is failing to regulate the private clinics. Strict punishments for the negligent doctors can reduce the number of such abhorrent incidents and the regulatory authorities need to keep a close eye on the defaulters.
