'Was asked to apologies to her': Indian-origin doctor who alerted hospital on UK's baby-killer nurse
London: An Indian-origin doctor, who was among the doctors to raise an alarm against UK’s ‘baby-killer’ nurse, has alleged that he was asked to apologise for making the accusation.
Dr Ravi Jayram, a consultant paediatrician at Countess of Chester Hospital, told UK-based iTV News that he had been alerting the hospital about Lucy Letby months before the management informed the police.
Lucy Letby (33), a nurse at the Countess of Chester Hospital in the UK, left the world shocked after she was found guilty of murdering newborn babies at the hospital where she worked.
Letby used a variety of methods to secretly attack a total of 13 babies in the neonatal ward at the Countess of Chester hospital between 2015 and 2016, read a statement issued by Britain’s Crown Prosecution Service.
Seven babies died as a result and the jury found Letby guilty of their murder.
She was also found guilty of seven counts of attempted murder relating to six other babies.
She will be sentenced at Manchester Crown Court on Monday (August 21).
Referring to the minutes of one meeting, ITV News reported that the doctors were told to "draw a line" under the "Lucy issue" and to apologise to her for alleged 'victimisation'.
"I'm drawing a line under this, you will draw a line under this, and if you cross that line, there will be consequences for you," the chief executive of the hospital Tony Chambers had told the consultants in 2017, alleged Dr Jayaram.
When the consultants pressed on contacting the police, they were dissuaded, he said.
"I do genuinely believe that there are four or five babies who could be going to school now who aren't," Dr Jayaram told ITV News.
Letby was first arrested in July 2018 and charged in November 2020.
