Family sues hospital, KZN health MEC for R11m over maggots in mouth

The family of a Durban man whose mouth was infested with maggots shortly before he died in RK Khan Hospital is suing the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Health for negligence, seeking R11m.

News24 previously reported Azaad had vowed not to rest until the hospital’s staff paid for neglecting his father. Speaking to News24 shortly after his father’s funeral in 2019, a distraught Azaad said he would do all in his power to ensure others did not suffer like his father. “The doctor was excellent, but the nurses were so unprofessional, spraying perfume all over, but not engaging with us.”
