In Sri lanka, Muslims not only shoot up and kill Christians in churches, a Muslim doctor there, Dr Siyabdeen Muhammad Safi (photo right), is alleged to have secretly removed the wombs of as many as 4,000 non-Muslim women undergoing cesarean sections.

Sri Lanka’s Ministry of Health has appointed a special investigation body to look into the allegations against Dr Siyabdeen Mohamed Safi of the Kurunegala Hospital who is accused of performing sterilization on women without consent, Minister of Health, Nutrition and Indigenous Medicine Dr Rajitha Senaratne said today.

The four-member investigation committee will comprise three members from the Ceylon College of Gynecologists and one member from Sri Lanka Medical Council to probe allegations against the OB-GYN doctor.

Dr. Senaratne told a media briefing at Temple Trees today that the committee will ascertain whether the doctor concerned had committed an offence. Safi has practiced medicine in 3 different hospitals over the past 13 years as an OB-GYN.

The Minister pointed out that such a procedure cannot be performed by one doctor without the assistance of others.

“When a cesarean surgery is performed in addition to the surgeon there is an assistant surgeon, anesthetist, several nurses, orderlies and other staff. They are all in the theatre, it’s not something one person can do. Therefore, we need to let the experts probe these allegations,” the Minister pointed out.

If found fault, we will take strict measures against him within the law of the country and the law of our ministry,” Dr. Senaratne added.
