Hospital bosses have apologised to the heartbroken family of a mum-of-three killed by a negligent doctor. Shahida Parveen died after attending the Royal Oldham hospital for a 'routine' bone marrow biopsy.
Three years earlier, Dr Isyaka Mamman had left a 64-year-old man permanently disabled after carrying out the same procedure. Mrs Parveen, 48, died after Dr Mamman pressed on with a 'highly dangerous procedure' without her consent.
She had been referred to the doctor, aged 81 the time, for a biopsy to confirm a potential medical diagnosis.
