LAHORE: A senior staff nurse at the Mayo Hospital fainted after a senior doctor allegedly misbehaved with her over cleanliness issue.

The Head Nurse Ms Gull was shifted to the intensive care unit of the hospital for treatment after the incident.

Her husband Mukhtar Masih later filed an application with the Gawalmandi Police Station against the senior medic, holding him responsible for the condition of his wife.

In his application, Masih alleged that the suspect used rough language while admonishing his wife over poor sanitation in a hospital ward which was the responsibility of sweepers and other employees.

He also claimed that her wife suffered brain hemorrhagic due to the rude behavior of her boss as he had also threatened her of departmental action. The senior doctor accused of misbehaviour, however, rejected the allegations, saying he had only questioned the nurse about sanitation on seeing dust in the ward and for showing carelessness.
