A newly wedded bride, who went into coma after a procedure for birth control at Women’s Hospital International and Fertility Clinic Bukoto in Kampala, Uganda, has died.
Joan Namutebi died on Thursday night, December 16, Kampala Metropolitan Police and Criminal Investigations Directorate officers confirmed on Friday.
Namutebi wedded Mr Derrick Wabwire last Friday, December 10 and went for a birth control procedure on Saturday.
According to investigators, Namutebi fasted for two days consecutively before her wedding.
The medical personnel at the hospital checked Namutebi and found that her ”uterus was not in the right position.” The doctors allegedly advised her to take some water to correct the problem.
