Melbourne, Apr 20 : Controversial Indian-born surgeon, Dr. Jayant Patel a. k. a `Dr. Death', who is currently facing a committal hearing into allegations of manslaughter over the deaths of three patients, will stand trial on 14 charges involving the death of three people.

Former Bundaberg Base Hospital surgeon Patel will also face trial on charges of causing serious injury to two others and fraud in getting his job in Queensland.

Sydney  - US doctor Jayant Patel on Monday was committed to stand trial in Australia for the deaths of three of his patients in a Queensland hospital in what police allege was bungled surgery.

Patel, 59, was extradited from Portland, Oregon, to face the charges.

She says that though she doesn't always notice her towering height, people often remind her of that.

"But, if I got defensive every time somebody said something, I''d be in that many fights. You just pretend you didn''t hear," The Courier Mail quoted her as saying.

London  - Father-of-two Lleyton Hewitt has gone to ground in Europe as Tennis Australia and the ITF row over whether a May 8-10 Davis Cup Asian zonal tie should be staged in the Indian city of Chennai.

Last November, up to 150 people died when Islamic extremists attacked luxury hotels and government building in what turned into a firefight.

India says the metropolis is perfectly safe, and the ITF agrees after conducting a security probe. But Tennis Australia is appealing that decision, asking for the tie to be played at a neutral venue.
