SA’s Caster Semenya Viral video reveal horrific images at Mamelodi Hospital

Johanna Molokomme video of a 76-year-old patient lying under the benches of a hospital believed to be Mamelodi A Hospital have surfaced on social media. The video shows a woman crying for help and in urgent need of medical attention. Although the content of the vid- eo could not be heard, the video shows a woman and a man believed to be a security guard in a scuffle of words. Virginia Keppler took to twitter and posted a video and pictures of her aunt, Martha Marais. The picture show the gruesome treatment patients get at Ma- melodi hospital. “The staff at the hospi- tal tied her hands behind her back and to the chairs, forcing her to lie down on the cold floor since Tuesday night. Nursing staff ignored her cry for help,” Virginia said in a tweet. This has grabbed the at- tention of many, with Professor Thuli Madonsela calling for a speedy investi- gation by the Gauteng Province. DA shadow MEC for health Jack Bloom said the images were horrific, adding that Marais was subjected to abuse. Bloom said he had reported the matter to the HOD at the Gauteng health department. “I have sent this to profes- sor Mac Lukhele, head of the Gauteng health department, for his immediate at- tention. Mamelodi Hospital is notori- ously known for poor treatment of pa- tients. I hope that the new health MEC, intervenes urgently to fix the deep-seated problems at this hos- pital,” Bloom said. Spokesman at the provincial health de- partment Lesemang Matuka said they would investigate the matter. “Gauteng Department of head office was not aware of this incident until this morning, its matter that we will follow up with keen interest to ensure that it doesn’t happen again in any of our pub- lic health facilities. 6 - 12 June 2019 www.gautengnewspaper.co.za Page 9 Gauteng Crime News A hawker shot in the face at Bree Taxi rank Page 4 www.gautengnewspaper.co.za 11 - 17 April 2019 Ntsoaki Toloane “It is alleged that a security officer from a burg Metro Police Department (JMPD)”, JMPD and anyone who sees them working hawker who sells wares was in criti- privateGauteng security company shot the victim in said Mbele. together on illegal issues should reportNews the cal condition after being shot by se- theNews face.
