But then the baby refused to eat and was taken to the emergency center in Cherven Bryag.

The next day the girl got worse.

The family goes to the emergency center in Lukovit, where they are waiting for an equipped ambulance from Lovech.

However, the baby never made it to the hunting hospital.

"The child is resting in front of the mother in the ambulance," said Nedka Georgieva, the deceased child's grandmother and Diana's mother.

The mother of the deceased mother stated that the doctors in Byala Slatina panicked.

"I am convinced that there is no forgotten placenta in the woman in labor," said Dr. Yordan Ikonomov, who is the head of the AGO at MBAL-Byala Slatina.

How do you explain that your ambulance could not reach a department in Pleven for hours to receive the patient?

I can't explain it to myself.

You can't trash a seriously ill person and receive such indifference from colleagues.

The initial telephone appointment for placement in a private clinic in Pleven was canceled due to the lack of a maternity unit there.

The woman was admitted there, but according to the channel order - through the emergency department.

An operation was performed at night, but he expired in the morning.

The prosecutor's office in Pleven has initiated pre-trial proceedings.

The University Hospital in Pleven told bTV that everything possible has been done, but they assume that some kind of poisoning of the body has occurred.
