Bou Faour Refers Ayla Tannous Case to The Disciplinary Council
Health Minister Wael Bou Faour referred the case of child Ayla Tannous to the disciplinary council to take immediate measures instead of waiting out the ruling of the criminal lawsuit.
Bou Faour considered the investigation report carried out, following a filed lawsuit by Hassan Tannous, to be lacking and vague in terms of accountability.
According to an investigative report submitted by the doctors’ syndicate:
“Dr. Issam Maalouf was not present when the child was admitted, a.i. from Sunday morning till Monday; therefore, proper assessment of her critical situation was not carried out, consequently leading to the amputation of her arms and legs at the American University Hospital.”
Bou Faour had contacted the General Prosecutor, Judge Samir Hammoud, so as to oversee the results of the investigation, avowing to recover the truth and prosecute culpable doctors.
