Punjab Probes Newborn Negligence Amid Mankato Infant Death Investigation

Authorities in Mankato, Minnesota, are investigating the death of an infant found unresponsive in a home on James Avenue. First responders attempted CPR on the baby before transporting them to Mayo Clinic Health System, where the infant was pronounced dead. The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension is assisting with the ongoing investigation, but no further details have been released. Separately, the Punjab State Human Rights Commission in India has ordered an independent inquiry into alleged medical negligence at a private hospital in Moga, following complaints that a newborn suffered severe vision loss due to poor medical care. The inquiry will be conducted by a three-member medical committee and will also examine allegations of hospital record manipulation and threats against the complainant. These cases highlight serious concerns about medical care and infant safety in different parts of the world.
