Lebanese Hospital Holds a Corpse of a Palestinian Syrian Refugee, Waiting his Family to pay $ 14, 000

The AGPS correspondent confirmed that Labib Abu Zaher hospital South Lebanon is detaining the corpse of the Palestinian refugee "Khaled Nasser Abu Jeda" who recently died after being shot while moving in one of the lanes of Meia Meia camp in Sidon, South Lebanon, requiring his relatives to pay (21 million LP) equivalent of $ 14, 000 for that night Abu Jeda spent in ICU at the hospital before he died.

His family appealed the AGPS to intervene and work to bring the body of their son from the hospital.

It should be noted that Labib Hospital has many precedents to hold the bodies of patients, in order to put pressure on the family of the deceased and force them to pay expenses.

The hospital held previously the body of the Palestinian Syrian refugee, Mazen Munir Saleh, from the Yarmouk camp, and refused to hand him over before paying the costs of treatment which amounted to $ 45,000.

Saleh was injured during clashes between Fatah and Jund al-Sham in Ain al-Hilweh refugee camp, as he was transferred to Labib Abu Dahr hospital in Sidon on 08/22/2015. He had two surgeries in the hospital without improvement and then he died on 09/01/2015.
