Official sacked over demolished hospital
Print Edition
Officials in central China鈥檚 Henan Province violated rules in forcibly demolishing part of a hospital, sending medical staff fleeing and burying under rubble six bodies being processed at a morgue, a state broadcaster said yesterday.
Xiong Zhiliang, a district official overseeing demolition work in the provincial capital Zhengzhou, has been fired, and police are continuing to investigate the incident that took place on Thursday, China Central Television said.
The No. 4 Hospital of Zhengzhou University has accused the local government of ordering the demolition after failing to get the hospital to agree to a road expansion project.
The hospital management also complained to state media that it was extremely disrespectful of the demolition crew to bury the dead in the rubble.
The Huiji District government in Zhengzhou said on Thursday that it sent in the bulldozer only after the hospital turned a deaf ear to requests that its CT room and morgue must be demolished to make way for the road project.
The district defended itself by saying that the workers checked that no one was inside before they torn down the buildings.
