Sultanpur: A woman and her newborn died on Saturday after doctors at a private hospital performed a cesarean surgery without her husband's consent. The family of the deceased then protested at the hospital, police said.
Yashoda (35), wife of Santram Pasi, was brought to a private hospital in the city by her family on Saturday after she began experiencing labour pains, police said.
Santram claimed that the doctors sent him to arrange for blood and proceeded with the surgery on his wife without his consent, a police official said.
The husband claimed the mother and child died during the operation but the doctors did not inform them about it and referred her to another hospital, saying her condition was serious, the official said.
In the complaint to the police, the family alleged that when an ambulance was called and preparations were being made to make the pregnant woman sit, they realised both the woman and her newborn had died, said Dheeraj Kumar, the SHO of Baldirai police station.
The family members created a ruckus at the hospital during which the hospital owner and the doctor fled, the police officer said.
The bodies have been sent for post-mortem and legal action has been initiated in the matter, he added.
