An Indian man who was a victim of a bus crash was asked to use the cut off part of his leg as a pillow in one of the hospitals in India. Ghanshyam Singh, a school employee, was severely injured during a school bus accident which also injured 25 school children.
The patient’s brother-in-law told SWNS he was rushed to a hospital 33 miles from the accident site, where doctors amputated his leg and then placed it under his head as a pillow.
"When we reached the hospital, we saw his leg being used as a headrest,” Janaki Prasad said.
The outraged relative said, "I repeatedly asked the doctors to intervene but they refused. Finally, after about two hours, I managed to get a pillow for him from the market and that's when the leg was removed."The Medical Education Ministry has suspended the emergency medical officer, senior resident and two nurses involved in the case.
In the meantime, the Uttar Pradesh government is investigating the hospital.
