WHAT OF PATIENTS OF GAOLED HERBALIST?
Per Press Association. WELLINGTON, November 25. The conviction and imprisonment of the Indian herbalist, Abraham Wally Mahomed Salaman, at New Plymouth, is stated to have given rise to an interesting question. Some of Salaman’s patients, who have been xtndergping special dietary and other treatment, apparently feel that a discontinuance of the treatment may have serious consequences, but with Salaman in gaol for twelve months, there does not appear to be any alternative. A committee is said to have been set up to make representations to the Government on the subject, and as a first step a petition from the patients concerned is being prepared for submission, and signatures invited. It is an unusual position, and has arisen in part from the belief that there is no one in New Zealand but Salaman himself capable of carrying on the particular form of treatment practised.
