WATCH: Family lay charges after woman, 76, tied to benches at Mamelodi hospital
Pretoria - The 76-year-old woman that was tied to the benches at Mamelodi Day Hospital has been in a traumatic state and heavily sedated.
“We are still consulting with the station commander on what type of charges can be laid for the inhumane behaviour,” said Keppler. "She is normally talkative, but now she has gone blank. She is way less interactive and looks visibly traumatised,” she said. “She can't even open her eyes. She is just dazed. I think they have increase her medicine dosage,” she said.
In one of the videos, her daughter Stephanie can be heard shouting, asking hospital staff if they thought their act was justified. She can also be heard apologising to her mother, saying “sorry mama, sorry”.
