Pune Police seek expert medical opinion in Pregnant Woman's Death
Pune: Pune Police have intensified their investigation into the tragic death of a 37-year-old pregnant woman, who was allegedly denied emergency medical treatment at Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital. As part of their inquiry, the police are seeking expert medical opinion from Sassoon General Hospital (SGH) and B.J. Medical College (BJMC).
The woman was rushed to DMH on March 28 with severe pregnancy-related complications. However, her family claims the hospital demanded a Rs 10 lakh advance for treatment, allegedly refusing admission when they could only arrange Rs 2.5 lakh immediately. As her condition deteriorated, the family transferred her to another hospital, where she tragically passed away shortly after giving birth to twin daughters. This heart-wrenching incident has drawn attention to serious allegations of medical negligence and breach of legal obligations by a charitable hospital.
