    Patient breathed last in another hospital

    The deceased's family alleged the hospital had supplied the bag containing platelets but after the transfusion, his condition deteriorated. He was shifted to another private hospital where he died. The doctors there told them that the 'platelet' bag was fake and was filled with a mix of chemicals including lime juice. A video of the bag marked as 'platelets' has gone viral.

    People claim racket; doctors, staff complacent

    All other patients of the hospital have been shifted elsewhere for treatment and district administration has formed a three-member committee for to probe the matter. Many claimed that a "medical mafia" was running in the state with the complacence of doctors and other workers. The additional chief medical officer of Prayagraj said the hospital will remain sealed until the 'platelet' sample is tested.

    Didn't supply platelet bag: Hospital

    The deceased's brother-in-law said that his 26-year-old sister had been widowed and appealed to UP CM Yogi Adityanath to take strict actions against the hospital staff. Meanwhile, the hospital has claimed that the patient's family sourced the plasma bag themselves. The hospital owner said after the patient's platelet level dropped to 17,000, the family arranged five units of platelets from a government hospital.
