Al-Marsad newspaper: A hospital refused to hand over the body of the 5-year-old Syrian child, Hussein Al-Arouk, who died in the fire of their house in Al-Rayyan neighborhood in Arar.
The “Al Shamal Medical Tower” in Arar justified its decision not to hand over the child’s body to his parents, on the grounds that there was an outstanding bill that had not been paid at the time of his birth, according to Okaz newspaper.
The father revealed the details of the incident, saying that his tragedy was the refusal of the North Medical Tower in Arar to hand over the body of his son, after it was found that there was a bill for the birth of the child at about 9800 riyals.
The father was not able to provide the amount of 9800 riyals, but a person took care of the delivery expenses of the late child, and the body was released from the hospital and handed over to his family.
