This incident echoes a similar case from November 2015, when another patient was brutally murdered at the same facility, suffering stab wounds and severe trauma. Despite several nurses being on duty that night, the attack remains a haunting reminder of security vulnerabilities in the hospital. Investigations into both cases continue.
