Observing that a child died due to alleged negligence and the failure to provide medical treatment, the Supreme Court strongly criticised two private hospitals and their doctors for allegedly refusing medical care to a four-year-old rape victim in Ghaziabad.

The observation was made by a Bench comprising Chief Justice of India Surya Kant, Justice Joymalya Bagchi and Justice V. Mohana while hearing a plea filed by the child's father, who alleged that she was alive for two hours after she was found and that timely treatment could have saved her life.
