Publication Overview/Description

The death of a child, the worst nightmare for any parent, came true for Ms. Nighat Rukhsana when she lost her two teenage sons in a road accident. The older one, 18, was going to drop his younger brother at school when a car hit their bike, leaving both of them severely injured. They succumbed to their injuries on the way to the hospital. But, Ms. Nighat thinks otherwise. To her, it was due to a delayed emergency response.
