The Health Minister addresses the scandal at Laquintinie Hospital Douala

The minister of public health, Andre Mama Fouda, has refuted popular claims Monique Koumate died out of negligence from medics at the Laquintini hospital in Douala.

Speaking this evening during a press conference in his ministry to address issues relating to the dead of the 31years old woman and her 7 months  babies, the minister indicated the woman had already died before she was brought to the hospital.

He went further in saying it is medically ethical not to conduct operation on a dead woman indicting the actions of the niece of the decease.

This now gives a great indication, the director and medics at laquintini hospital will be spelt from any prosecution while on the other, the niece of Monique could be prosecuted.
