Arab Baby Kept By Hospital As Collateral.
An Arab mother who gave birth to triplets in the Moqassed hospital in East Jerusalem was unable to pay 10,000 shekels (£1,250) for treatment.
The hospital kept one of the children, a girl, as a "guarantee" until the money was found.
The baby was held for two months until the parents went to the Justice Ministry who, after investigating, ordered that the infant be returned to its mother, and is now deciding whether to press charges of false imprisonment against the hospital.
A heart-warming story of caring, dedicated health professionals.

Good grief! How inhuman can you get? Sack the hospital adminstrators responsible - better still, stick them in an Arab prison for a couple of months!
