German doctor’s horror as patient screaming ‘Allahu Akbar’ threatened to behead him

Dr Attila Tan, from Bonn, had just returned to work after a holiday when he was set upon by the crazed father of a 19-year-old he treated.

The teenager, who had previously fractured his leg, came back to the German hospital on Monday complaining of the treatment he had received.

He demanded further medical care from Dr Tan, complaining about pain he said he was suffering from.

Dr Tan, a 54-year-old surgeon, said: “The patient came in around 10am, he was accompanied by his girlfriend who wore a veil.

“He was radiating aggression that only intensified when I treated him.

“I explained everything to him, including the exercises he should be doing. But he wasn’t listening.”

The irate teen stormed out of the office shouting insults, only to return with his 45-year-old father and younger brother, 15.

The doctor’s loyal wife was beaten as she tried to help her husbandThe dad brought with him a 30cm ‘Rambo’ knife.

Dr Tan’s wife, 54, who works at the hospital reception, screamed for help when she saw the blade.

In surgery when the trio burst in, the medic rushed towards the front desk and met the knife-wielding attacker head on.

While trying to hold him down, Dr Tan recalled: “The father screamed at me: ‘apologise to my son, go down on your knees and kiss his hand’.

“The younger son then grabbed me from behind and tried to push me down.”

He said it felt like the attacker was getting ready to behead him.
