All that is written and forwarded by email is not true, don't jump into conclusion at the first instance, MD of Manipal Hospital is a good friend of me, below is the clarification from the hospitaland apology letter from the originator of the email
Dear Bimal,
Thank you very much for your mail and thereby expressing your genuine concern. The truth is far different from what is written in the mail that has been forwarded to you. This is the way, some people can misuse e-mail network and cyber media. We have filed a defamation suit. The guy who wrote this original email has given us a written apology. He had also sent a subsequent mail ( to the original recipients), expressing regret over his emotional reaction. We have also taken up with his employer i2Technologies- for having allowed their network to be used for causing defamation to us.
Please read the attachments. Our Conscience is clear and free from any guilt on the matter.
We did everything possible to save this patient(26 year old boy, involved in a road accident due to drunken driving), who was brought in with a major brain stem injury, 3 hours after the accident. There is very little that medical science can do in such situations. All that they paid was Rs 150/- for 2 hours of ICU care and high end Diagnostic procedures like CT,etc. They bashed up our patient care coordinators in the middle of the night and forcefully took the body. Then, one of the co-brothers of the patient sent out this damaging e-mail. We have taken mulltiple actions ,since then, to neutralize the negative impact.
I have received numerous mails from well-wishers all across the world after realizing the truth.
Thank you very much once again, for your genuine concern.
Regards,
R Basil

Dear All,
I would like to get one incident happened this weekend to ur notice.
One of my co-brother met with an bike accident and expired
on Friday night.(A BMTC bus came in wrong side and hitted him)
This accident happened around 6.30 PM near whitefield and initially he
got
admitted to a hospital called Vydehi near whitefield.
Later it was proposed by Vydehi doctors to take him to either
Nimhance or Manipal.
So we took him to Manipal around 8.00Pm since NIMHANCE is very far
and also by considering traffic at that time. To reach even Manipal it
took too much time, Most of the delay caused because of Heavvy Traffic
in airport road. As soon as we took him to the Manipal hospital
doctors
said his state is very critical and 95 % he is out. Still they said they
will do CT-Scanning and then they can clearly confirm the status.
Then around 10.30 PM they arranged for CT-Scanning ( too much of delay ).
Soon after the CT-Scanning one of the doctor reported his BRAIN
is damaged , 2 kidney's and small lever also was damaged for which he
needs to be operated for a head surgery and a stomach surgery, during
the operation he may die also or at any moment he may die. Soon after
they took him to ICU instead of taking him to Operation Theatre. There
was around 1 hr delay in answering us back from this point. They didnt
allow any of us to see him when he was in ICU untill we demanded and
shouted on them. When we demanded and asked them to discharge so that we
will take him to NIMHANCE, Then the answer from them was they will
operate immediately but we need to Admit and pay around 2 lakh Rs. Since
we didnt had that much of cash and also we doubted on whether he is
still alive or simply these doctors playing a game..., But still since
they demanded around 2 lakh rupees for the operation before they start
it, I went ahead to fill up the forms and pay money immediately with
using credit card , But when our uncle had a look at him in ICU noticed
that he is already dead (this was around 11.30 PM). Then immediately he
asked me to not to make any payment. We went to doctor in-charge and
asked(when we shouted) about his status and chances of he being saved.
Doctor infomred that chances are less than 1 percent, then only we
realized that MANIPAL Administration guys playing a game, and trying to
fool us to collect some money in the name of operations to operate a
deadbody !!!
We took it seriously and tried to contact TV9 on the
same day but could not get the contact numbers...,
Since we were strong enough fight back on Manipal Hospital they agreed
that
he is dead and asked us to pay Rs. 30,000 to release dead body.
As we know they didnt give any treatment other than doing a CT-Scan and
keeping the
deadbody in ICU fr 2 Hrs.. We shouted on them and demanded to release
the deadbody with CT-Scan charges only. Finally we were able to fight
and take the body with out paying any money as they were trying to cheat
us.
Some how we escaped from being paid for dummy operations being
planned by Manipal Doctors. But if it was some other innocent poor
people they would have ended up with paying full money and cheated by
MANIPAL.
The whole idea behind my writeup is : we all know MANIPAL
is one of the big and well known Hospital in bangalore. But these people
cheat innocent people by collecting huge money to operate even
deadbody!!! and try to fool as if they are going to save the patient. I
request you all to forward this mail to all your friends and inform
every one on how BIG Private Hospitals can cheat .. and to Be aware of
these..
