- Saudi clinic 'dumps' Aids patient "An inquiry has begun in Saudi Arabia into allegations that a clinic ejected a terminally-ill Aids patient and left him in the street barely conscious. Abulraheem Mahmood, 57, was taken in a pick-up truck and left on the pavement by his employer's office in Jeddah, the Saudi newspaper, Arab News, reported. He was then taken to another hospital where he died three weeks later. The New Jeddah Clinic said it had to dismiss the patient because it did not specialise in treating Aids patients. But the clinic said it had given sufficient notice for Mr Abulraheem's employers, Rajab and Sisilah, to collect the patient, the newspaper reported. |
