FEET DRAGGED ON MISSING BABY PROBE

- (ANA) | African News Agency

THE DA said yesterday the Gauteng Health Department had still not concluded an investigat­ion on the baby who went missing from a clinic in Stinkwater earlier this year.

In a statement, Gauteng DA spokespers­on on health Jack Bloom said the baby went missing on May 29.

“This is according to Gauteng Health MEC Gwen Ramokgopa in a written reply to my questions.”

Ramokgopa said “due to the unavailabi­lity of the implicated midwife, negligence or the absence thereof could not be establishe­d”.

“This is a poor excuse for a case where a baby could have been kidnapped or killed.”
