On December 26, family members of one Zahoor Ahmad Ahangar son of Ghulam Qadir Ahanagr of Dadarkot area brought him to District Hospital Ganderbal for treatment following complains of toothache.
According to family members of Zahoor, "initially after reaching to Hospital that night staff members on duty refused to treat Zahoor and without even conducting any investigations, asked to take him to Bone and Joint Hospital Barzullah for treatment.
They said that after they pleaded them to treat Zahoor who was in severe pain, an unauthorized person, whose identity could not be established administered and injection to him, following which his condition deteriorated.
As the news about this incident spread in area, people of Ganderbal started protesting inside Hospital campus seeking to know the name of the persons who allegedly injected excessive medicine to Zahoor and strict action against him.
