Mumbai: Comedian and Bollywood actor Sunil Pal has been booked for allegedly posting a video on social media a fortnight back claiming 90% of doctors dressed in “demon suits” scare Covid patients from morning till evening, and by end of the day the person dies of fear.
Pal claimed these doctors were thieves who did not care for the poor. Andheri police registered an FIR against Pal on May 4 based on a complaint by Dr Sushmita Bhatnagar (55), president of Association of Medical Consultants (Mu-mbai), after watching the video, first noticed by chairman Dr Sudhir Naik on April 20.
Pal told TOI: “I have uploaded another video apologising if anyone felt hurt. But I stand by my comments as doctors were considered as God. During these tough times, poor people are made to suffer and I have mentioned in the video 90% of doctors are dressed in demons and the rest are doing their duty to serve peop-le. There is no need for doctors to feel hurt if they are doing their duty sincerely. I have not get any police notice so far.”
