Despite evidence showing that the outbreak at the Al-Fateh children's hospital in Benghazi in 1998 was most likely caused by poor hygiene and that it predated the medics' arrival there by at least a year, Libya's Supreme Court upheld the death sentences earlier this month.
Uprkos dokazima koji pokazuju da je epidemija u dečijoj bolnici Al-Fateh u Bengaziju 1998. najverovatnije bila uzrokovana lošim higijenskim uslovima i da je izbila najmanje godinu dana pre dolaska medicinara u bolnicu, vrhovni sud Libije potvrdio je smrtne kazne ranije ovog meseca.
