However, the victim's family members preferred not to lodge any complaint. A third year engineering student, G. Rahul Kumar, 21, was admitted to the hospital on Sunday morning with pneumonia. His father Prakash Rao said that Kumar was normal till the early hours of Monday. According to him, at 4.30 a.m., his son overheard two nurses talking about removing his kidney. "My doubts of kidney theft strengthened when they declared my son dead after an hour," he told reporters at the hospital. The demonstration took a serious turn with 300 students of Karshak Engineering College, Uppal, joining the agitating family members. The police rushed additional forces to tackle any eventuality. Later, Kumar's family members urged the hospital management to pay compensation for the doctors' negligence but the latter turned down their demand. Finally, the victim's family members called off their demonstration saying they did not want autopsy of the body in the name of investigation and took the body to their village in Jadcherla of Mahbubnagar for cremation.

Re: This could happen in Apollo hospital: disgusting What pisses me off more is that it happened in Apollo of all places how could you bloody trust anyone. After all no amount of money seems to be enough for these punks. Doesn't give nice feeling more so when I am in the middle of moving back to india process. Couple of months back there was this news aboutn Dr. Gupta who used to cut legs of poor boys for begging mafia. Mother fcuker disappeared when the story came out and I am sure he must be practicing somewhere even today. Used to send my parents unescorted for any problem to apollo indraprastha in delhi now will have to think thrice.

Plain stupid goondaism, and glorified headlines- what is the Hindu coming to? The relevant bits are in bold.Do you really think Appollo needs to steal kidneys? They are the third biggest corporate chain in the world, and not some fleabag hospital

Re: This could happen in Apollo hospital: disgusting I have to state my experience here. I have a relative that was an Urologist (Kidney specialist, is that right?) and he was doing great. He was one of the top doctors about a decade ago and he was married to a lovely lady (She was a pediatrician and looked absolutely stunning ala a bollywood star). They both were a great couple and were scaling heights in their profession. One day I heard from one of my relative the Urologist I mentioned above had fled the country after having been implicated in Kidney stealing racket. I don't know where he fled to but I cannot believe he got into this mess. There is an interesting story that goes with this. One of my cousin mentioned the Urologist was about to steal kidney from a mafia leader. My cousin casually mentioned to the Urologist about the mafia he was looking after and it seems he dropped the idea of nicking it from the mafia leader. Now about a couple of years ago I had dinner with his wife and I have to say she looked pale and lifeless. I think she went through this horrible experience with cops knocking on her door every other day and it was just too much for her to take. I think her profession took a noose dive and now she is looking forward to migrating too. I really feel sad for her for having chosen a bad professional as her partner. Not only did he ruin his life but abridged his partner?s career big time. It is just a very sad story really and I still cannot fathom why a successful, educated professional had to resort to this kind of inhumane act to better his status in the society.
