Hyderabad: An 11-year-old boy, who was treated for fever at an ayurveda clinic, died allegedly due to a reaction of the treatment in Chatrinaka in the Old City. Parents of T. Tarun lodged a complaint with the police on Friday and a case has been registered.

Tarun is a resident of Shivajinagar in Uppuguda and is studying in class VI. For the past one week, he was suffering from fever.

His mother took him to Bavani Clinic, run by Dr Bhavani. She gave medicines and prescribed tests for him.

But when the fever did not subside, she visited the boy at his home and gave him injections.

Pallavi, the boy’s mother, said, “The doctor visited our home and gave injections. When his condition worsened, she did not respond to our calls.”

Later, the boy was rushed to Ashra Hospital in the Old City but was shifted to Niloufer hospital, where he was declared brought dead.

K Manoj Kumar, Chatrinaka inspecto of police, said that the parents alleged that the treatment went wrong which resulted in his death.

“We are in the process of collecting evidence,” the inspector said Dr Bhavani is absconding.
