Upon realizing the theft, the attendants promptly reported the incident to hospital authorities. The hospital staff, in an attempt to unravel the mystery, turned to the facility's CCTV cameras. The footage revealed a thief sneaking into the patient's cabin at 5:00 a.m., swiftly snatching the mobile phones, and vanishing into the shadows, leaving the attendants bewildered.
Expressing frustration, the patient's nephew stated, "The hospital has advised us to file a formal complaint, which we have promptly done. Considering the patient's condition, two family members were diligently attending to her. It's unfortunate that a moment of fatigue led to the loss of their phones. We hope law enforcement will assist us in recovering the stolen items."
