The incident has sparked outrage among hospital staff and members of the public, raising serious concerns about privacy, ethics and the dignity of deceased persons within the hospital premises.
The accused, identified as Munir Ahmed, has reportedly been working as a mortuary attender at the hospital for several years. According to the allegations, he secretly photographed female bodies during post-mortem examinations and stored the images on his mobile phone.
