Saudi Arabia has initiated an investigation into an incident at King Faisal Hospital in Taif where newborns were reportedly swapped, according to Dr. Talal Al Maliki, CEO of the Taif Health division.
Dr. Al Maliki confirmed to Okaz newspaper that the investigation is underway at all levels following a complaint lodged two weeks ago concerning the incident.
"The families involved have been contacted to provide DNA samples, which will help confirm the babies’ parentage before they are rightfully returned," he stated.
Authorities in Taif have pledged to impose strict punitive measures on those responsible for the negligence that led to the accidental exchange of the newborns.
