Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Four persons of a family thrashed a doctor posted at a hospital in Indrapuri, after one of their family members, who had been admitted there, died following health complications on the intervening night of Saturday-Sunday, the police said.

Piplani police station house officer (SHO) Anurag Lal said complainant was Dr Ritesh Batra posted as a doctor at Anant Shree hospital located in Indrapuri. A 48-year-old man had been admitted to the hospital on Friday after he had suffered a heart attack.
