Stray dog drags away stillborn from hospital
INDORE: A dog took away the body of a stillborn from the state-run Maharaja Yeshwantrao (MY) Hospital on Saturday morning. The baby was delivered by a 19-year-old teenager from Dhar.

The pregnant mother was admitted to the burns unit in the hospital on Thursday after suffering 83% burns in an accident. Sonography tests diagnosed that the baby had died and the foetus was removed to prevent further danger to the mother.
Hospital authorities allegedly did not send the body to the mortuary immediately, but left the foetus in a tray in the surgery unit, when the dog whisked away the corpse.
“I was waiting by my daughter’ s side when I saw a dog entering and picking the foetus from the tray. By the time I could alert anybody, it started running,” said a family member.
“We had kept the foetus in the tray as the family members were not much interested in the body… since their daughter was also critical. They informed us later and we then caught hold of the dog and put the body back,” said a nurse on the condition of anonymity.
Only last month, the hospital was caught in a maelstrom when two infants died from being given nitrous oxide instead of oxygen after a surgery.
