‘Dentist’ acquitted and discharged
Saturday, 11 Aug 2018
KUALA LUMPUR: The doctor who was acquitted of causing the death of Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s son-in-law two years ago wants to go back to work as an obstetrician and gynaecologist at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital.
Dr Ting Teck Chin was found not guilty by the Session Court of causing the death of Datuk Syed Alman Syed Alwi.
He said through his lawyer, Datuk K. Kumaraendran, that he was sad over what happened.
The 38-year-old said the incident was devastating and had affected his life.
Dr Ting added he wanted to go on with life and wished to resume his career.
Judge Zaman Mohd Noor acquitted Dr Ting without ordering him to enter his defence after the prosecution failed to prove a prima facie case against him.
He said based on guidelines anyone who was not an anaesthetist could administer sedation up until a moderate level.
He ruled that it was up to the prosecution to prove that the victim was allergic to certain medicines and that the onus was not on the accused to do so.
“I now acquit and discharge the accused without his defence being called,” he said.
A total of 25 prosecution witnesses testified in the trial, which began early last year.

Put professionalism over profit, Zahid warns doctors after son-in-law’s death
PUTRAJAYA, Aug 12 — Deputy prime minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said today that all medical practitioners need to prioritise professionalism over profit after his son-in-law passed away in June from receiving treatment at a private dental clinic.
Zahid added he hoped justice would prevail after the doctor responsible was charged at the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court this morning.
“Those who have passed we accept it, but I am aware that my grandkids are now without a parent because of clinical negligence and I hope justice prevails.
“I hope it is a lesson to other practitioners that if you’re on locum and you want extra funds, the lives of patients must still be given priority. Professionalism must come first,” he said during a press conference after chairing the Cabinet Committee on Disasters meeting.
Earlier today, news portal Malaysiakini reported that 36-year-old Dr Ting Teck Ching claimed trial to a charge of culpable homicide not amounting to murder under Section 304(b) of the Penal Code.

According to NST, Dr Wong is the owner of the centre while Dr Ting, 35, is an obstetrician and gynaecologist attached to Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL).
Syed Alman, 44, died during dental surgery at the centre in Bangsar on June 1.
