Fake doctor finally arrested weeks after performing fatal surgery

MONROVIA — The Liberia Medical and Dental Council (LMDC), in collaboration with the Ministry of Justice’s Public Safety Division, the Liberia National Police, the Montserrado County Health Team, and with support from the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA), has arrested Abraham Kamara, the man accused of impersonating a medical doctor and performing a fatal surgery that led to the death of Dorcas Vondeh.

Kamara was arrested Thursday, May 1, at the Masalam Medical Clinic on Kebbah Road in a coordinated operation led by Deputy Director John Bass Golokeh of Public Safety. The arrest followed weeks of collaborative efforts launched after the LMDC issued a nationwide alert and manhunt on March 25.

“We are deeply saddened by the untimely passing of Madam Vondeh and extend our sincere condolences to her family and community. Her death must not be in vain,” said James-Emmanuel D. Cole Jr., LMDC public relations officer. “Let this stand as a firm message to all unqualified individuals posing as medical professionals — this will not be tolerated in Liberia.”

Kamara, the proprietor of the now-shuttered ABC Clinic in Gardnersville and ABC Annex 2 in Kakata, Margibi County, performed a surgical procedure without medical qualifications that led to the death of 39-year-old Vondeh on March 16.

Following the incident, the LMDC immediately shut down both ABC facilities and began working with national authorities to bring Kamara to justice. The council lauded the public for its cooperation in providing critical information that led to Kamara’s arrest.

Deputy Director Golokeh also extended appreciation to citizens who came forward with credible information.

“No one should suffer or die at the hands of unqualified individuals,” he said. “This arrest is a victory for public safety. We want to assure the Liberian people that there will be zero tolerance for quack medical practice. Anyone endangering lives through illegal operations will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.”
