Egyptian prosecutors have ordered the burial of Sara Gamal El-Din, the ex-wife of former Ahly and national team player Shady Mohamed, after completing the necessary investigations and legal procedures. The Public Prosecution of Cairo New is still investigating the circumstances of her death at a Cairo hospital following a surgical operation.
The investigation began with a report from Sara Gamal El-Din's family, accusing the hospital and medical team of medical negligence that led to her deteriorating health and eventual death. The prosecution has decided to question and investigate the entire treating medical team to hear their accounts of her health and the medical procedures followed before, during, and after surgery.
As part of the investigation, the prosecution has reviewed the hospital's CCTV footage from before, during, and after the operation to establish the sequence of events leading up to her death and to monitor the movements of the medical team and visitors during the period under investigation. They have also requested access to Sara Gamal El-Din's complete medical file, including reports, medical tests, and analyses.
Sara Gamal El-Din passed away at a Cairo hospital after undergoing surgery to remove a uterine tumor. Her condition deteriorated after the operation, according to a report from her family. Her son accused the hospital and medical team of negligence and called for an investigation into the circumstances of her death.
Shady Mohamed, the former Ahly star and current head of the club's women's football department, paid tribute to his ex-wife on social media, writing: "We belong to God and to Him we shall return. My children's mother has passed away. May God have mercy on her and grant her paradise." A funeral prayer was held at the Mosque of Marshal Tantawi after Friday prayers.
