TRUTH OF SATYAMEV JAYETE.................

The complainant (Mr. Rai) has provided false information and also

withheld crucial information which may have made Aamir Khan believe

the fabricated story of Pankaj Rai.

1. Mr. Rai never informed Aamir Khan that Mrs. Seema Rai was

registered for a cadaver transplantation more than one year prior to

surgery. The call on the night of admission was made because a

cadaver donor had become available. Cadaver transplantation has to

be done emergently, otherwise the organ(s) will decay and become

useless. That is why the patient was admitted on the night of 1 May

2010. The patient and her family were all informed about risks and

benefits of transplantation for more than 2 years (since June 2008).

2. Mr. Rai, Mrs. Rai and Abha Rai all were again counseled for more

than 1 hour on the night of admission about kidney and pancreas

transplantation. Subsequently they also discussed with their

relative in New York. Then on the night of 1 May itself Mr. Rai

personally informed the doctors to proceed with kidney + pancreas

transplantation. The Informed Consent form was signed on the night

of 1 May itself and handed over the ward doctor. The Karnataka

Medical Council as well as the National Law School of India have

investigated the Informed Consent issue and clearly stated that

Informed Consent was indeed taken prior to surgery. In fact, if the

Informed Consent was not given on the night of 1 May, the organ

would have been allocated to the next patient on the waiting list

for cadaver transplantation who was already admitted to another

Hospital. (Whenever a cadaver donor is available, several patients

on the waiting list such as Seema Rai are called and advised to get

admitted.)

3. Mr. Rai never asked anybody in the Hospital to stop the surgery

at any time. He was plainly lying when he made a statement to that

effect to Aamir Khan. On the contrary, during the entire

hospitalization, Mr. Rai was praising the doctors for their hardwork

in trying to save his wife.

4. The patient did not receive 119 units of blood, i.e., 60 liters

of blood. She received 33 units of blood over 4 days which is about

10 liters since she had developed a massive bleeding condition

called Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC). She also

received platelets, FFP and other blood products to correct DIC.

5. The surgeon is definitely qualified to conduct pancreatic

transplantation as well as kidney transplantation. He is trained at

the world famous Hospitals in the United States where he had

conducted numerous multi-organ transplantation surgeries.

6. The Hospital was registered for multi-organ transplantation.

There was a clerical error in the Certificate which was acknowledged

by the Health Department. The Health Department have clearly stated

in their report that registration for liver includes pancreas as

well (since the skill required for transplantation of both these

organs is one and the same).

7. Mr. Rai also withheld from Aamir Khan that the Karnataka Medical

Council has thoroughly investigated the case and found no evidence

of any negligence on the part of the doctors.

I am sure Mr. Rai has used his theatrical skills to convince Aamir

Khan and his team about his false allegations. I am also confident

that Aamir Khan will realize the lapse his research team has done

once all the facts are provided to him.
