Detectives contacted the hospital, but the women have not yet been contacted, the police said. “In this regard, we would like to ask both women to contact us via line 158 or come to any police station“, she added. She also wrote that she started dealing with the exchange of patients on Thursday after the information was published in the media.
She later said that one of the women had already called. “During today (Friday, editor’s note), we were contacted by the legal representative of one of the victims, who represents the woman. On the basis of the newly obtained information in the case, criminal investigators have initiated criminal proceedings on suspicion of the criminal offense of bodily harm due to negligence” added the police officers. The penalty for negligent bodily harm is up to one year in prison. “Anyone who negligently injures the health of another by violating an important duty arising from his employment, profession, position or function or imposed on him by law shall be punished by imprisonment for up to one year or a ban on activity,” the Criminal Code states.
Her spokeswoman Eva Kropáčová did not want to specify which of the women contacted the police. The request for her to come forward, however, still applies to the second of the injured women.
What happened?
According to CNN Prima News, a healthy pregnant woman who miscarried at Bulovka Hospital came for a routine check-up. Doctors should have performed a so-called curettage on the second woman, which is performed, for example, in the treatment of a diseased uterus, but can also terminate the pregnancy.
The Ministry of Health announced on Thursday that it considers the incident to be an inexcusable human factor failure. The hospital has apologized to the family and is ready to provide compensation to the patient, the culprits have been suspended, said ministry spokesman Ondřej Jakob.
