The police head of the state and then the Minister of Health denied the violation of the hospital compound on Bersih day. Many of us do not need the doctors to write to know what took place on July 9 for we could see the many videos in the internet. It still amazes me why the authority were not able to keep up to the social media broadcasting. The last I hear was, Liow was calling for an investigation. The present Government seems to be good at lots of this and what not inquiry even up to the royal one...to us it all mean "delay tactic". The outcome? Nothing! You still remember the Royal inquiry of Lingam, look like me, sound like me, but not me...Up to this very day, he and his gang are FREE of any wrong. Justice delayed is justice denied.
Please read the following to know the truth.

Hi,
A letter from the doctors of Tung Shin Hospital.
AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH
We, the undersigned doctors, wish not to enter into the polemicsof the Bersih 2.0 march on 9th July 2011 but would like to clarify theinconvenient truth.
We are outraged at the incidents, and the subsequent responses fromthe authorities, to the events where tear gas and chemical laced waterwere shot into the compounds of Tung Shin and Chinese Maternity Hospitals,two adjacent buildings along Jalan Pudu, Kuala Lumpur, with scant regard for the safety of patients, staff and the general public who wereat the buildings that afternoon.
Hospitals are considered assafe sanctuaries for all, even during war times, but these consecratedplaces of refuge and protection were violated by the defence forcesthat afternoon. Police evenentered the buildingsin search of some of these peaceful marchers. What was most frighteningand witnessed by many was the unprovoked violent assault within thehospital compounds and apprehension of several protesters who had merelyrun into the hospitals to seek shelter from the tear gas and the watercannons!
It is repulsive that theauthorities entrusted with policing the nation and protecting the weakand needy, have shamelessly denied publicly, the occurrence of theseincidents IN SPITE of countless photo/video and eye witness accountsof what was evident to all independent observers.
A few of the undersigned were actually visiting or working in the hospitalsconcerned at the time of the events and will gladly provide sworn affidavits,if required, as to veracity of the incidents
The Malaysian public expect holders of high public office to honour theirpositions accorded by the citizens, by discharging their duties with moralintegrity, dignity and transparency.
Their failure to do so raises the public's doubts in their competenceand credibilty as much as it demeans those high offices.
