KTPH MISDIAGNOSED CANCER PATIENTS FOR 8 YEARS, APOLOGISES

Khoo Teck Puat Hospital issued an apology for lapses that resulted in misdiagnoses of breast cancer patients that resulted in half of them receiving unnecessary treatment.

They will also be compensating the victims.

Five of their employees, including their management and staff, were identified by the hospital for no adequately performing their duties and responsibilities, leading to the lapses; their punishments include termination, fines and stern warnings.

Retraining, re-education and counselling will also be conducted.

Investigations were concluded on 3 May 2021, and the National Healthcare Group had set up of an independent review committee to carry out the misdiagnoses evaluation.

NHG also added that now that the hospital has reached out to all the patients who were affected, they will be looking into the “appropriate compensation for each individual patient”, although it will take some time to complete.

KTPH previously revealed (in December last year) that about 180 of their breast cancer patients may have been incorrectly diagnosed over 8 years.

They were misdiagnosed with a type of malfunctioning gene, and that it was caused by human-error.

MAN MASSAGE 15 Y.O STEPDAUGHTER, THEN MOLEST HER PRIVATE PARTS

A 57-year-old man was sentenced to 14 months of jail on 3 May, for molesting his stepdaughter.

He pleaded guilty to one count of molestation, with another similar charge being considered during sentencing.

Both parties cannot be named due to a gag order.

What happened?

The accused married the victim’s mother and lived together in a Woodlands flat.

The incident happened in 2019, when the victim was 15-years-old.

The two were alone at home and the victim asked the accused for a massage because she didn’t sleep well the night before and felt pain in her back.

Her stepfather then asked her to remove her clothes and she did so as she trusted him.

He then massaged her mack for 20 minutes before he slid his hands into her private parts and molested her.

The girl was uncomfortable and told him it was ticklish, after which the accused stopped and told her to shower.

He also told her not to reveal the incident to anyone.

The girl kept mum until her stepfather molested her again for a second time at a later date.

She told her mother about it but the latter decided against making a police report because they were concerned about the accused’s age and health.

A report was later made when a child protection officer found out about the incident during a conversation with the victim.

The court also heard that the accused was fined in 2006 for possession of obscene films.

District Judge Teoh Ai Lin allowed the man’s sentence to be deferred to after Hari Raya.
