In a shocking incident, a doctor at a private hospital in Assam’s Cachar district allegedly removed the genitals of a 28-year-old man, who had come for treatment of infection, while carrying out his biopsy, without the patient’s consent. The patient had come to the hospital initially with complaints of genital infection, reported NDTV. The man, identified as Atikur Rahman, a resident of Manipur’s Jiribam district, had visited a private hospital in Silchar for treatment of an infection but found after the biopsy that his genitals had been removed without his consent, said the NDTV report.

“Now, I am helpless and don’t know what to do. My life is finished. I tried to contact the doctor several times, but he didn’t respond to my calls. I am in mental distress and have a problem due to the surgery,” he added.
