On Monday when the girl was brought at the hospital, her condition was reportedly critical as she had suffered severe cold bites. Her hand was badly injured.
When Nagpur Today inquired with Mayo Hospital’s Superintendent Dr Chafle in this regard, he informed that the railway police brought the child at the hospital. Her condition continuously worsened and she finally breathed her last on Monday morning. However, he refused to divulge more details regarding the reason of the girl’s death. But when Nagpur Today took up the question to Mayo Dean Prakash Wakode, he pulled up Dr Chafle for not sharing the information.
It was after this that Dr Chafle said that the infant was brought to the hospital in deteriorated state. She was being treated in NICU after she caught infection.
The postmortem report would follow in another 3-4 days after the reason of the girl’s death could be revealed.
