The man, who has not been
named, is believed to have wanted a female doctor to deliver the baby and was
upset that the male doctor would have seen his wife naked.
The Saudi man was arrested
after he shot a male obstetrician, arguing that he had no right to assist his
wife’s delivery and that a woman gynecologist should have been around.
Dr Muhannad Al Zabn, who
has a Jordanian father and a Saudi mother, delivered the baby one month ago at
the King Fahad Medical City in the Saudi capital Riyadh.
According to media reports,
the father went to the hospital and told the doctor he wanted to see him to
thank him for helping his wife with the delivery of the baby, Saudi news site
Sabq reported on Thursday.
The two met in the garden
of the hospital and during the conversation, the shooter took out a gun he had
concealed under his clothes and fired at the doctor.
As the Saudi father fled
the scene, medics rushed the victim to the emergency department then to the
intensive care unit. The shooter was later arrested by the police. Bassam Al
Buraikan, the spokesperson for the hospital confirmed the incident, saying that
a doctor was shot and that his condition was now stable.
