A First Information Report (FIR) has been registered against unknown persons in connection with Mumbai's Nair Hospital MRI machine death case. Rajesh Maru, 32-year-old, lost his life on Saturday evening after he was sucked into a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine in the hospital.
DNA first reported this case which led to a media outcry over the alleged negligence of the hospital and the staff on duty. Three people have been suspended in the case now. " Dr Siddhant Shah who was the doctor on duty at the time of the incident, ward boy Vitthal Chavan and another hospital help Sunita Surve have been suspended till the preliminary inquiry is done," announced Deputy Municipal Commissioner Ramesh Bamble.
The FIR has been registered under Section 304A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
In this shocking case, Rajesh Maru died after he got sucked into an MRI machine in Nair hospital in Mumbai Central. The incidence took place on Saturday at 8.30pm when Maru was taking his relative to an MRI room but himself got sucked into an MRI machine due to the magnetic force. Maru was holding the oxygen cylinder which was providing oxygen to his relative.
"It was a shock for us to know that Rajesh died. It is just because of the carelessness of hospital's doctors, and technical carelessness. No security guard was either present to tell him that he should not carry oxygen cylinder with him to MRI room. It is the duty of the doctors and technicians to tell relatives what precautions to take. The MRI machine was on when Rajesh was called in. As he entered the room the machine took him in with force. He died in 2 minutes. Since then no hospital authority has approached us accepting their mistake" said Maru' s relative Naranbhai Jitiya.
Family members of the victim protests at the hospital demanding stern action in the case as hospital authorities initially refused to take any concrete action against the staff members responsible for the incident.
