Bihar Hospital Investigates Missing Eye Incident

A shocking incident at Nalanda Medical College and Hospital (NMCH) in Patna has raised serious concerns about medical negligence after the eye of a deceased shooting victim, Fantush Kumar, was discovered missing shortly after his death. The victim's family alleges foul play, while hospital authorities suggest that a rat might be responsible for the missing eye, a claim that has drawn heavy criticism from opposition leaders including the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD). RJD spokesperson Mrityunjay Tiwari condemned the situation, calling it a disgrace and indicative of a breakdown in governance in Bihar. The police are currently investigating the matter, reviewing CCTV footage and questioning hospital personnel, but no complaint has yet been filed by the family. The hospital administration has set up a committee to investigate the incident, with conflicting theories regarding the cause of the missing eye, including negligence or possible foul play by accomplices of the assailant. The case highlights a troubling state of affairs in Bihar's healthcare system, as officials work to determine accountability for this bizarre and distressing incident.
