Footage has emerged of a doctor punching a patient in the chest just after a heart bypass operation. Highly-regarded Russian anaesthesiologist Dr Andrey Votyakov told investigators he was extremely tired after a 36-hour shift and grew angry when the patient started abusing him. He is seen hitting the man in the face and striking his fist at his chest while he is strapped on to a bed. The patient reportedly died later at the Federal Centre for Cardiovascular Surgery in Perm, although his death is not believed to be linked to the attack.
