A medical dispute occurred at a hospital in Thane, Maharashtra, India on July 1, 2024 when a 9-year-old boy was mistakenly circumcised instead of receiving treatment for his leg injury. The doctor later realized the error and urgently treated the boy's leg, leading to the parents calling the police out of anger. The hospital spokesperson defended the doctor's actions, stating that the circumcision was necessary due to a foreskin issue and that the doctor's procedure was correct. However, the parents accused the doctor of performing two surgeries without their consent, leading to a health department investigation.
