A woman, who was receiving treatment at the Neville Fernando Teaching Hospital Malabe (NFTH), had allegedly died of suspicious circumstances yesterday, Government Medical Officers Association (GMOA) said.

GMOA Secretary Navin De Zoysa said the woman, a resident of Dompe, had died after she underwent a surgery at the hospital.

In a statement GMOA said, Health Ministry and Sri Lanka Medical Council (SLMC) should conduct an investigation into the incident.

“This is not the first time an incident of this nature had happened in this hospital which was operating without proper guidance of the Health Ministry,” the statement said.
