Juhu's Cooper Hospital has started investigations into the allegations made against doctors for making a sexual abuse case child wait for two hours. The inquiry comes following mid-day's report on July 12, on how a seven-year-old child, who was sexually abused in Maldives, was made to run pillar to post to get medical tests conducted. According to the hospital administration, a report would be submitted to the BMC commissioner soon.
Claiming that hospital authorities have found the entry of the complainant's visit to the casualty ward on July 5 for a medical examination following sexual abuse in the Maldives, the hospital official said, "We have checked the CCTV footage of the casualty unit and the department where the child was sent. We have recorded all the statements of the doctors and nurses on duty and are compiling all the documents and would submit a report to the BMC commissioner soon."
