Samajwadi Party shares horrifying video of dog nibbling away at dead body in UP

A shocking video of a stray dog nibbling at the dead body of a girl inside a government hospital in Sambhal district of Uttar Pradesh has led to public outrage.

The disturbing incident took place on Thursday after the girl was brought to the hospital following a road accident and died later. Hospital authorities have suspended two workers who apparently could not cope up with a large number of dead bodies on the day.

The 20-second video shared widely on social media, shows a dog nibbling away at what appears to be a dead body covered by a white cloth lying on a stretcher in an isolated area in the hospital.

The family of the victim has blamed the hospital for negligence while the hospital administration has acknowledged the stray dog problem.

Charan Singh, the father of the girl, told reporters, "It was left unattended for 1.5 hours. It is negligence of the hospital."

"The body was handed over to the family after formalities. They did not want an autopsy and were taking it away. They might have left the body unattended for a minute when the incident happened," Sushil Verma, a doctor at the hospital said.
