According to the infant’s father, Rafaqat Ali, the hospital staff was irresponsible and uncooperative when he questioned them about the incident. He alleged that the staff members were rude and even expelled him from the nursery.

The father appealed to Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz for justice, seeking an investigation into the incident and action against the hospital staff responsible for the negligence.
