Central Hospital authority sent a legal notice to Dr Sangjukta Saha for withdrawing her statement against the hospital regarding the death of a mother and her newborn. 

Lawyer Mohammad Mazharul Islam Sohel sent the notice to Dr Sangjukta's house on behalf of the hospital on June 21.

He said, "Dr Sangjukta held a press conference at her house on Tuesday and made defamatory statements against the hospital. We sent the notice for her to withdraw the statement."

"If she does not withdraw her statement a Digital Security Act case will be filed against her," added the lawyer.

On Tuesday (June 20), Dr Sangjukta alleged that Central Hospital is liable for the deaths of Mahbuba Rahman Ankhi and her newborn child.

Earlier on 14 June, Akhi's family members alleged that Central Hospital deceived them by saying gynaecologist Sangjukta Saha was present during the delivery of Akhi's child, leading to the newborn's death and major injuries to the mother.
