Scores of decaying human bodies, some with maggots and attracting hovering scavengers, were found on the roof of a public hospital in Multan city of Pakistan on Oct. 14. Brought to light by a whistleblower, the situation led to public outcry amidst fears of a violation of medical ethics.
Pakistan media GeoTV cited sources on Friday for its report on dozens of unidentified bodies in a room on the roof of Nishtar Hospital’s mortuary. The actual situation is not yet clear, with local media also citing clamor about the recovery of allegedly hundreds of human body parts from the roof on social media.
