Medics' wrath on journalists

We have learnt from newspapers about the recent incidents of assaulting journalists by doctors. Some Rajshahi Medical College doctors refused to give treatment to a journalist. Everybody knows how much suffering the patients had to undergo during the recent strikes by DMCH doctors. Recently a Prothom Alo reporter has fallen victim to the wrath of a Sikder Medical College doctor who swooped on him with his cohorts simply because the reporter went to the physician's office to verify an allegation that the medic, despite being a government employee, has been working at the private medical college fulltime.
Every medical student, at the very beginning of his/her medical profession, has to take oath of serving people, whoever it is. So assaulting and refusing to give treatments to the journalists are incompatible with the oath they take.
