Medical Negligence - Trial Court Should Examine Medical Expert Before Framing Charges

07 Dec 2019 04:27 pm

The Supreme Court has reiterated that examination of a report of an independent medical expert is crucial before proceeding against a doctor accused of medical negligence.

Earlier, the Apex Court had in Jacob Mathew v. State of Punjab & Anr., (2005) 6 SCC 1, laid down guidelines governing the prosecution of doctors for the offence of criminal negligence, punishable under Section 304A of IPC. It had held therein,

  1. A private complaint may not be entertained unless the complainant produces prima facie evidence before the Court in the form of a credible opinion given by another competent doctor to support the charge negligence.
  2. The investigating officer should, before proceeding against the doctor accused of negligence, obtain an independent and competent medical opinion, preferably from a doctor in government service qualified in that branch of medical practice.
