08 Apr 2024 / 09:54

CORFU. Anxiety about the awaited diagnosis led a patient of the Pulmonology Clinic to suicidal tendencies on Sunday morning. He approached the window of the room he was hospitalised in on the third floor and threatened to jump.

Fortunately, nurses and doctors from the hospital heard his cries and rushed to remove him from the window and prevent the attempt.

The police were called to the incident and took testimonies. Following a prosecutor's order, the patient has been hospitalised in the Psychiatric Clinic.
