Defendants in Al-Hussein Salt Hospital sentenced to three years imprisonment – Roya News English

The defendants in the case of Al-Hussein Salt Hospital were sentenced to three years in prison, the Amman Court of Appeals decided Tuesday.

This came after the court decided to reject the appeal submitted by the convicts in the case and to uphold the decision regarding their conviction of causing the death of nine people.

Sept. 9, 2021, the Amman Magistrates Court decided to add a new death count in the oxygen case at Al-Hussein Salt New Hospital, bringing the total number of deaths that occurred due to the oxygen being suddenly cut off from patients in the intensive care unit to 10.
