JBFH chairman, MD seek time from HC

The High Court has now asked the chairman and managing director of Japan Bangladesh Friendship Hospital to appear before it on March 27 to explain the ‘treatment’ of a dead child in the hospital, reports UNB.
A two-member HC bench comprising Justice M Moazzam Husain and Justice Md Badruzzaman fixed the date anew after hospital chairman Dr Junaid Shafiq and its MD Dr Nayeem Ahmed appeared before court and prayed for time. On February 11, the High Court summoned the Director General of the Directorate General of Drug Administration and the hospital authorities to appear before.
The court issued the order following a media report that the hospital authorities kept a child at the ICU showing him alive, although he was dead and were charging his family in the name of treatment.
