Victims of brain butcher neurosurgeon Sam Eljamel are planning a protest to demand he is brought to justice – claiming they feel like they are “on death row”.

For more than five years Police Scotland have been receiving complaints from people who believe they were victims of Eljamel but there has been no suggestion of arrest or charges against him or NHS Tayside.He now lives in his homeland of Libya, where he continues to work as a surgeon and has been photographed treating children.Now the victims of Eljamel’s botched surgery, who number more than 170, complain the police only ramped up their investigation following the announcement of a public inquiry into the scandal.Next week, victims will protest outside Bell Street Police Station in Dundee at the length of time they have had to wait to see if charges will be brought.Jules Rose and Pat Kelly were the first two victims to report their cases to Police Scotland.Last night, Jules said: “I, ­alongside 99 other patients who have complained to Police ­Scotland regarding NHS Tayside and Eljamel’s criminality, feel like it is ourselves who are on death row.“Police Scotland has been kicking the can down the road.

There’s been no urgency and ­commitment placed upon this investigation.“We first reported our cases to the police five years and seven months ago and what I want to know is what were the police doing for the first five years?Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.You'll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.All you have to do is click here if you're on mobile, select
