A Saudi man was arrested for allegedly shooting a male doctor, arguing that he had no right to assist his wife’s delivery.
The father of the newborn child returned to the hospital a month after the delivery, where he shot Dr Muhammad Al Zabn, a male obstetrician for assisting his wife’s delivery, arguing that a female gynaecologist should have been there instead.
According to reports, the man arrived at King Fahad Medical City in Riyadh, where he told Al Zabn he wants to meet him and thank him for helping his wife through the delivery.
Following the father’s request, the two met in the hospital’s garden where he pulled out his gun and fired at the doctor.
Confirming the incident, spokesperson for the hospital Bassam al Buraikan said the doctor’s condition is now stable.
“The man was later arrested by the police.”
