K.K. Harshina, the victim in an alleged case of medical negligence at the Government Medical College Hospital (MCH), Kozhikode, called off her sit-in protest on Saturday after the Medical College police submitted a chargesheet in the case at the Kunnamangalam court.
She had been protesting in front of the hospital for the past three months demanding action against the culprits and a compensation.
Ms. Harshina had suffered severe pain after a C-section surgery performed at the medical college hospital in 2017. After treatment at several hospitals, including the MCH, a pair of artery forceps was found in her stomach in an MRI scan. The surgical instrument was removed through a surgery in 2022. Since then, Ms. Harshina has been fighting for justice citing medical negligence.
