“The DA extends its deepest condolences to the patient’s family.”
“Of particular concern in this latest case is that the gunmen drove onto the Clairwood Hospital property, seemingly without any security checks.
“According to reports, while the gates were locked when they tried to leave, they were able to do so by threatening the security guards into opening them,” Viranna said. According to the DA, this raises “serious” concerns regarding the training that hospital security guards receive. The party said it would call on KZN health MEC Nomagugu Simelane-Zulu to fast-track a major overhaul of current hospital and clinic security measures, including improved training of security personnel, better visitor entry and security checks, CCTV cameras and evacuation procedures.
