A tragic incident occurred in Giza's Haram district when a pharmacist, who wished to undergo a cosmetic procedure, died during surgery at a local clinic. The pharmacist had entered the clinic for a lip reshaping procedure but exited in a body bag. The incident has sparked an investigation into the circumstances surrounding her death. Authorities have been informed, and an inquiry is underway to determine the cause of the tragedy.
According to eyewitnesses, the pharmacist's family had been waiting outside the operating room when they noticed a commotion inside. A nurse rushed out to fetch medical equipment, and shortly after, the family was informed of the pharmacist's passing. A preliminary medical report indicated that the cause of death was a severe drop in blood circulation. The incident has raised questions about the clinic's operating procedures and the qualifications of its staff.
The pharmacist had chosen to undergo a lip reshaping procedure at the clinic, which has been operating in the area for some time. However, authorities have revealed that the clinic is not licensed and has been operating without oversight from the Ministry of Health. This has led to concerns about the safety and regulation of cosmetic clinics in the region.
Following the incident, the Giza police were alerted, and a team from the Haram police station, led by Captain Mustafa Al-Dakr, arrived at the scene. The body was transferred to a hospital, and the public prosecutor's office was informed. The prosecutor ordered a forensic examination to determine the cause and circumstances of the pharmacist's death.
A security cordon was established around the clinic, and its equipment was confiscated. The doctor who performed the procedure reportedly fled the scene after realizing the pharmacist had died, leaving the clinic's staff to handle the situation. This has led to further questions about the accountability and regulation of medical professionals in the region.
The public prosecutor's office has requested that the authorities investigate the clinic's operating procedures and determine whether it has the necessary licenses and permits to perform cosmetic surgeries. The investigation has revealed that the clinic has been operating without proper authorization, and its staff may not have the required qualifications.
