NHRC issues notice to AIIMS

New Delhi: The National Human Rights Commission on Monday issued notice to the All-India Institute of Medical Sciences on a report alleging that a towel was left behind in the stomach of a woman who was operated in the premier institute last month.

Taking suo motu cognisance, the Commission sought a report from AIIMS within four weeks.

The woman, Gursharan Kaur, was operated upon for removal of gall bladder stones at AIIMS on July 27.

According to her family, a CT scan at a private hospital revealed that there was a foreign object in her stomach.

Kaur underwent an operation at the same hospital and doctors took out a towel from her stomach, her family said.
