President Dr Mohamed Muizzu was deeply saddened to learn of the death of 13-year-old Mohamed Jaah Khalid of GA. Villingili Island, as he was being treated at the Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital (IGMH). Following the tragic incident, the President extended his heartfelt condolences to Mohamed Jaah Khalid's parents and family.
President Dr Muizzu requested a thorough review from the relevant authorities of the preceding events during the patient’s emergency transfer from GA. Vilingili Island to Malé City. He additionally implored the authorities to revise and modify the current protocols surrounding the emergency transfers of patients requiring immediate medical attention to prevent such incidents henceforth.
Furthermore, the President directed Island Aviation Services Ltd. to establish a protocol prioritising timely patient transportation for critical patients without requiring the completion of the approval process by administrative bodies, such as Aasandha.
May Almighty Allah rest Mohamed Jaah Khalid’s soul in eternal peace and grant his family patience during this time of sorrow.
