A doctor who admitted to killing a mother-of-three during a botched procedure has been jailed for three years.
Dr Isyaka Mamman pleaded guilty to gross negligence manslaughter over the death of Shahida Parveen, 48, in 2018 at the Royal Oldham Hospital.
The 85-year-old, who had previously been suspended for lying about his age, used the wrong needle and inserted it in the wrong place, piercing the sac holding Mrs Perveen's heart. Handing down his sentence at Manchester Crown Court, Mrs Justice Yip said the death was his main responsibility but the hospital trust should have done more after Mamman had lied about his age and botched two similar procedures.
