GMC disposes off dead body of 24-yr-old man instead of unclaimed body, minister orders suspension of officials

Panaji, Sep 29 (UNI) In a major goof up, body of a 24-year-old man was disposed by the Forensic Medicine Department of Goa Medical College and Hospital (GMC) instead of unclaimed body of a 45 year-old-man even as Health Minister Vishwajit Rane on Saturday announced that he had ordered suspension of three presons involved in the goof up.

Addressing a press conference at his office at Miramar in the city, Mr Rane said the matter could not be taken lightly as it was a lapse on the part of the Goa Medical College (GMC).

"I visited GMC and inquired about the incident.
Through Health Secretary I have initiated inquiry as to submit report within eight days.
Instructions have been given to Health Secretary Ashok Kumar to suspend Dr Edmundo J Rodrigues, Professor and Head, Department of Forensic Medicine, Goa Medical College, Dr Machindra Zalmi, Junior Technician, Prakash Narvekar, post-mortem attendant, both from Department of Forensic Medicine, GMC.</span>
