Searching for suitable arm for Achala - Health Sec.
This is being done with the assistance of the private sector, Health Ministry Secretary Dr. Nihal Jayathilake said, assuring that the ministry has not neglected the matter.
Addressing a press conference in Colombo today, he stated that patients with broken arms and legs are treated and discharged by hospitals on a daily basis and requested journalists to refrain from damaging the credibility of the entire health system based on one such incident.
Dr. Jayathilake stated that those found guilty under the report, being compiled by a committee appointed to probe the incident, will be punished according to the existing law and that they cannot resort to ancient punishments.
