A fake doctor has been arrested after an X-ray blunder at a Hospitals in Zimbabwe.
.Douglas Garikayi Mutoredzanwa’s audacious attempt at impersonation came crashing down after he was caught red-handed holding an X-ray upside down while purportedly analyzing it in front of a patient.
.According to The Herald, the suspect deceived a medical doctor attending to a patient, by falsely claiming to be a fellow medical doctor.
.He proceeded to grab an X-ray film pretending to analyze it, despite holding it upside down.
Afterwards, he abandoned the X-ray film and took two surgical blades, pethidine drugs, three syringes, cotton, cannula-sensitive tapes, and gloves.
The doctor grew weary of the suspect’s handling of the X-ray and promptly notified a loss control officer at the Hospital.
Despite the overwhelming evidence against him, Mutoredzanwa maintained his innocence, claiming to be a nurse rather than a medical doctor
