Disgraced surgeon refuses to attend inquest into his patients' deaths

Paterson had been due to speak at Birmingham and Solihull coroner's court, which is investigating whether 62 of his former patients “died an unnatural death as a result of his actions”. It is thought to be one of the largest inquests in British history.

Paterson, 66, was served a notice in September to give evidence yesterday via video link from prison, where he is serving a 20-year sentence for 17 counts of wounding.
