A 5-year-old girl died of seizures shortly after a local doctor administered two injections because she had a mild cough and fever. The victim, 5-year-old Kim Chantey, lives in Teuk Phos district, Kampong Chhnang province. She died after her parents took her to a private doctor’s house in Banteay Preal commune, Rolea Bier district.

 

Yim Sophal, Deputy Inspector of Criminal Planning of Rolea Bier District Police Inspectorate, told local news on the afternoon of July 24 that this case had occurred since the evening of July 22, but he just received the information this morning because the victim’s parents just reported to the administrative post.

 

He added that in connection with the case, according to the information he received, the girl’s parents initially took the girl to the home of a private doctor named Ho Thong, a 45-year-old female. After the doctor injected two needles into both of the girl’s thighs, the victim suddenly had anaemia. When she saw that, the doctor gave her a serum and asked her parents to take her to the Provincial Referral Hospital for emergency treatment.
