A doctor has been transferred out of a hospital in the northern islet of Kayts after the mysterious death of a nurse working there sparked anger among residents.
Sarvanai Dharshika’s body was found inside her room at the nurses’ quarters with a nylon rope tied around her neck.
As Dharshika was seen in an argument with the doctor on the night prior to her tragic end, the villagers suspected that he might be involved in the death.
The doctor, a resident of Ratnapura, has been transferred out of the area. Both he and the nurse had been employed at Velanai Hospital.
The body was moved to the Jaffna hospital last night after a magisterial inquiry. |
