A physician of Fultola health complex came under a knife attack allegedly carried out by his former colleague at his chamber in Fultola upazila on Monday morning.

The injured, doctor Uttam Kumar Dewan, 40, is a pediatric consultant of the health complex while the attacker Mohsin Gazi is a sub-assistant community medical officer of Narail district sadar sub-health complex.

Officer-in-charge (OC) of Fultola Police Station Md Monirul Islam said Mohsin went to the chamber of Uttam around 10:30am and stabbed him indiscriminately, leaving him critically injured.

Legal action will be taken against Mohsin, the OC said.

The critical injured physician was sent to Khulna Medical College Hospital.
