Masked Man Removes Chain From Dead Body at Siwan Hospital
· India · Times of India, The Hindu
A viral CCTV video from Siwan Model Sadar Hospital shows a masked man allegedly removing a gold chain from a deceased body near the registration counter before walking into the emergency ward. The footage, reportedly from late Tuesday night, has raised serious security concerns after an outsider accessed a body area despite existing surveillance. The man seen in the video has been identified by hospital sources as Bablu Kumar, who sources claim frequents the emergency ward at night. Allegations have also surfaced that he misleads patients into private nursing homes and operates a private ambulance, though these claims remain unverified. The incident has rekindled memories of a prior complaint where a silver anklet went missing from another deceased woman's body at the same facility. Police verification of the footage and a full investigation are underway to establish the facts.
Why it matters
The breach exposes critical lapses in hospital security, putting patients and stored bodies at risk of theft and raising public trust in healthcare administration.
