Doctors offer to maim beggars probed
(Reuters)
Updated: 2006-08-02 20:19
NEW DELHI - Three Indian doctors caught on camera apparently
agreeing to amputate the healthy limbs of beggars are to be
questioned by the Indian Medical Council, an official said Tuesday.
Secretly filmed footage taken by the CNN-IBN news channel
and broadcast Saturday showed one of the doctors asking for
10,000 rupees (about US$215) to amputate a lower leg,
leaving a stump that may draw sympathy --
and a few rupees -- from passersby.

He then suggests chopping off three fingers from the man's left hand.
Police said one of the three doctors had been questioned and
denied the allegations, but that no arrests had been made.
The doctor, from Ghaziabad in the north Indian state of
Uttar Pradesh and a satellite town of the capital, New Delhi,
explains how he can stitch up blood vessels in a healthy limb,
causing it to blacken with gangrene over a few days.
A prospective beggar can be booked into the doctor's claiming
to have had an accident, and then have the amputation carried
out without raising eyebrows, he explains.
"Believe me if there are two beggars in front of you and one of
them is lame, you will give the money to the lame beggar," the
station recorded him as saying in Hindi.
Dr Indrajit Ray, who chairs the Medical Council of India's ethics
committee, said the three doctors would be summoned to appear
before the committee later this month but was unable to say
whether they were registered with the council.
If found guilty, they would almost certainly be permanently
banned from practicing in India, he said.
"This is a very painful situation for me as a member of the
medical profession," he said. "This is most uncivilized and
butcher-like activity. It cannot be supported under any circumstances."
The TV station sent a "fake beggar" along to see the doctor at his
Ghaziabad clinic after hearing he offered the amputations.
Their meeting was secretly filmed.
CNN-IBN said it was trying to expose the activities of a country-wide
network of "beggar mafia dons" who exploit the destitute, forcing
beggars working in their patch to hand over their alms, and
maiming them to maximize revenue.
A beggar in New Delhi told the channel he had been tricked into
going for a medical check-up on the promise of a job.
He came round after an injection to find one of his legs missing.

Why Indian students are disliked abroad
It was the first day of a school in USA and a new Indian student named Chandrasekhar Subramanian entered the fourth grade.
The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American History. Who said 'Give me Liberty , or give me Death'?"
She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Chandrasekhar, who had his hand up:?' Patrick Henry, 1775' he said.
'Very good! Who said 'Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth?''
Again, no response except from Chandrasekhar. 'Abraham Lincoln, 1863' said Chandrasekhar.
The teacher snapped at the class, 'Class, you should be ashamed. Chandrasekhar, who is new to our country, knows more about our history than you do.'
She heard a loud whisper: 'F ___ the Indians,' 'Who said that?' she demanded. Chandrasekhar put his hand up. 'General Custer, 1862.'
Now furious, another student yells, 'Oh yeah? Suck this!'
Chandrasekhar jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher, 'Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky,1997'
Now with almost mob hysteria someone said 'You little shit. If you say anything else, I'll kill you.'
Chandrasekhar frantically yells at the top of his voice, 'Michael Jackson to the child witnesses testifying against him, 2004.'
The teacher fainted. And as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, 'Oh shit, we're screwed!' and Chandrasekhar said quietly, 'I think it was Lehmann Brothers, November 4th, 2008'.

Driver jailed for causing motorcyclist death
By Elena Chong
Supparayan S. Valoo, 49, had admitted to beating the red light when he caused the death of full-time national serviceman Huang Jun Jie, 20. -- PHOTO: SINGAPORE POLICE FORCE
A DRUNK prime mover driver who caused the death of a motorcyclist and injured the pillion rider was jailed for 20 months and banned from driving for 10 years on Tuesday on three charges.
Supparayan S. Valoo, 49, had admitted to beating the red light when he caused the death of full-time national serviceman Huang Jun Jie, 20, along Yishun Avenue 2 at the junction of Yishun Ring Road on Dec 21, 2008.
He also admitted to injuring Mr Huang's girlfriend, Ms Mizushima Emi, 21, by doing an act so rashly as to endanger life.
He had failed to conform to the traffic red light signal while making a right turn, thus encroaching into the path of Mr Huang and the pillion who were proceeding straight from the oncoming direction resulting in a head to side collision.
The third charge he pleaded guilty to stated that he was driving when the alcohol in his body was more than twice the legal limit.
He had 90 mcg alcohol per 100ml of breath when the legal limit is 35mcg.
Mr Huang died five days later.
