It took two days for Omid Masoumali to die. Suffering burns to more than 57 per cent of his body, he had the initial diagnosis of a scold and was treated on a baby's cot in a dirty, old hospital with mould on the walls, an inquest hears.

The Government of Nauru, which has not provided evidence to the inquest, on Friday released its first statement, defending its treatment of Mr Masoumali.

"He arrived in ER at 10:20am and doctors immediately inserted IVs and he was given pain relief by an anaesthetist. "His partner was focused on filming the incident on her phone and actions by those close to the victim made treatment more difficult."
