Jharkhand HC seeks detailed probe report on HIV-infected blood transfusion in Chaibasa
RANCHI: The Jharkhand High Court has taken strong exception to the alleged transfusion of HIV-infected blood to minor children at the blood bank of Chaibasa Sadar Hospital, terming the matter "extremely serious".
The court sought a comprehensive status report from the state government on the matter.
Hearing the case on Wednesday, a bench led by Justice Rongan Mukhopadhyay expressed dissatisfaction with the state’s response, observing that merely registering an FIR is not enough in a case of such grave consequences.
The court stressed that accountability must be fixed and those responsible for this lapse brought to justice.
The petition, filed by Deepika Hembram and others, had sought the registration of an FIR and the setting up of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the alleged lapse.
