Pak’s healthcare staff endanger Hindu woman’s life by severing newborn’s head, leaving it inside womb
In a shocking case of negligence, the employees of a rural health centre (RHC) in Sindh province of Pakistan put a 32-year-old Hindu woman in a life-threatening situation by severing the head of her newborn baby and leaving it inside her womb, media reports said. She was also allegedly filmed while lying on a stretcher. On getting apprised, the government of Sindh initiated a medical inquiry into the tragic incident to nab the culprits. “The Bheel Hindu woman, who belongs to a far-flung village in Tharparkar district, had first gone to a Rural Health Centre in her area but with no female gynaecologist was available, the inexperienced staff caused her immense trauma,” said Professor Raheel Sikander, head, gynaecology unit, Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences (LUMHS) in Jamshoro. https://www.wionews.com/south-asia/paks-healthcare-staff-endangers-hindu-womans-life-on-severing-newborns-head-leaving-it-inside-womb-490158
