Police Surgeon Dr Mahendra Chand has been found guilty of medical misconduct by the Medical Council of Guyana, which has suspended him for his actions in the treatment of the teen boy who was tortured in police custody.
Stabroek News was informed that the council on Friday agreed on suspension for a two-month period, which would be subject to the approval of the Health Minister. Although Dr Chand was afforded the opportunity to answer the complaint against him stemming from the controversial case, the council subsequently decided on suspension. He would now be asked to show cause why he should not be suspended, in keeping with the provisions of the Medical Practitioners Act.

This Dr. had a duty to help the young man in the best way possible…hence may have offended the medical practicioners act !
