Mangaluru, Jan 7: Abdul Hakeem Kuloor, the brother of Ahmed Basheer, who passed away at a hospital on Sunday four days after he was attacked by communal hatemongers at Kottara Chowki in the city, has urged people not to disrupt peace.

“When my brother Basheer was alive everyone respected him. This is time to pray for his soul. No one should try to disrupt peace. There will be no procession,” said a teary-eyed Hakeem, who had shared a close bond with his brother.

The aggrieved brother’s timely statement gains significance in the wake of attempts by saffron forces to take out funeral procession of Deepark Rao, who was hacked death by another gang hours before attack on Basheer on January 3.

When the news of Basheer’s death began to spread, Food and Civil Supplies Minister U T Khader and Mangaluru City North MLA B A Mohiuddin Bava rushed the AJ Hospital and urged the people who had gathered outside the hospital to see the mortal remains to maintain peace. ADGP Kamal Panth too visited the hospital.

Hakeem said that the last rites of Basheer will take place on the premises of Mohiuddin Juma Masjid at Kuloor-Panjimogeru. “Soon after the postmortem the mortal remains will be kept at Basheer’s house at Akashbhavan where only female family members are allowed. Later, the body will be taken to the mosque where Mayyit Namaz will be held. Before burial relatives and friends can see the Basheer’s face there,” he said.

Bengaluru, Aug 6: No private hospital in Karnataka can turn away a patient without attending to him or her, irrespective of the Coronavirus status, an official has said.

"Private medical establishments shall not deny treatment and admission to any patient approaching the establishment irrespective of the fact that such patient may or may not be suffering from Covid-19," an official from the state Health and Family Welfare Department said on Wednesday.

Likewise, no private hospital can insist on a patient for a Covid-19 test report, said the official invoking the Disaster Management Act.

"The establishments also cannot insist for Covid test report," he said, directing all private hospitals to strictly abide by their responsibilities.

According to the department, it is the duty of every private hospital to provide first aid and take lifesaving steps when any patient approaches it.

"It is the duty of every private medical establishment to provide first aid and take lifesaving measures to stabilise the patient," he said.

The department also invoked statutes from Karnataka Medical Establishments Act 2017, under sections 11 and 11 (A) to drive home the message.

The directives assume significance at a time when several cases of private hospitals denying admissions and fleecing patients across the state have emerged.

"It has been noticed that some of the private hospitals are refusing treatment and admission to emergency patients, causing distress and this has resulted in complications, leading to death in certain cases," said the official.

The district authorities have been directed to take action on the erring hospitals as the department reiterated the responsibilities of private medical establishments.
