The full story
Relatives and friends of a six-year-old boy who died following dental treatment under general anesthesia organised a protest outside the Medicus Alpha clinic in Plovdiv. The demonstration, held under the slogan "Justice for Angel," follows a preliminary court hearing on November 9 where the court returned the indictment to the prosecution due to procedural flaws. Protesters demanded convictions and punishment for the medical staff involved. The protest also comes in the wake of a Supreme Administrative Court decision allowing the clinic to continue operating pending a final ruling on the health minister's order to revoke its license.
