The Supreme Court quashed the District Medical Court's decision to dismiss proceedings due to the withdrawal of the prosecution request. The court found the dismissal procedurally invalid because the trial had already concluded with evidence presentation, including expert opinions, yet the court failed to issue a substantive ruling on the alleged professional misconduct. Consequently, the case was remanded for a proper adjudication based on the complete evidentiary record.
