{{Independent investigations have been launched by relevant authorities to ascertain who is responsible to leave medical kits in the bedridden Zawadi Murekatete\u2019s uterus for three years.}}<\/p>\n

It is allegedly said that one medical personnel at Byumba District hospital operated Murekatete of Gihembe refugee camp three years ago and left gloves, cotton wools and a syringe in her abdomen.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u201cWe cannot give the details now but we have started investigation over the allegations but am sure we will give you the findings once we complete the investigations,\u201d Supt Theos Badege the police spokesman said.<\/p>\n

It has been said that Murekatete could have lived with the medical kits inside her abdomen in a three-year pain till when the camp midwife intervened and requested for the patients transfer to Central University Hospital (CHUK) after observing that she may die.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey had refused to give us transfer, my daughter succumbed to pain day and night, I begged them several times but they could not listen to me, they reached an extent of telling me that she had a tumor and asked to treat it till when they stopped tell that but changed and begun to tell me my daughter had mental problem, the deliberately refused to treat my daughter and I don\u2019t know why,\u201d Murekatete\u2019s mother Collete Nyirabaruta narrated.<\/p>\n

A medical personnel who realized the cause of the Murekatete\u2019s pain, and removed the kits from her uterus say that it is not confirmed whether Byumba medical personnels could have left them in her uterus since she is said to mentally disturbed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Byumba hospital director Fred Muhairwe had also alleged medical personnel at CHUK could have been responsible for the medical kits found in the Murekatete\u2019s abdomen.<\/p>\n

A report from the Rwanda Medical Council is also expected to avail circumstances surrounding the medical controversy.<\/p>\n
