Mangaluru: A 32-year-old man from Ullal, Muhammad Mazin, tragically passed away following a cosmetic surgery procedure at the "Flaunt" Hair Transplant Clinic in Kankanadi. The family has accused the clinic of negligence, claiming that errors during the surgery led to his death.

Mazin had visited the clinic on Saturday morning to have a small cyst removed from his chest. According to his family, the surgery, expected to take about 30 minutes, was prolonged for hours without any communication. His mother and wife, who were waiting outside, grew concerned and were later informed of a sudden change in his health condition.

Mazin was rushed to a private hospital in Kodialbail, where doctors declared him dead on arrival.

The Kadri police have registered a case based on a complaint filed by Shaman Ibrahim.

Mazin’s relatives have alleged that negligence on the part of the clinic's doctor during the procedure led to his death. Furthermore, concerns were raised about the clinic’s inadequate facilities, as the ambulance stretcher could not reach the clinic due to its cramped location.

Social activist Rizwan Pandeshwar has urged the public to avoid clinics lacking proper infrastructure for cosmetic procedures.

Despite the incident, the head of the clinic has reportedly not contacted Mazin’s family to offer condolences.

Ibrahim emphasised that the organisation would be guided by the principles of 12th-century social reformer Basavanna and the architect of the Indian Constitution, Dr. B. R. Ambedkar.

A veteran politician, Ibrahim served as Union Civil Aviation Minister during the tenure of H.D. Deve Gowda as Prime Minister and later headed the Karnataka unit of the Janata Dal (Secular). He was expelled from the JD(S) in 2023 on charges of anti-party activities.

His exit from the party followed sharp differences over the JD(S) decision to ally with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). As the then state president of the JD(S), Ibrahim had publicly criticised the alliance, claiming it was finalised without his knowledge. He had also reportedly convened meetings of his supporters and expressed support for the INDIA bloc.
