More than 110 days later, Radiant Hospital has turned into a virtual detention centre because the 28-year-old accountancy student can’t pay the Sh1 million bill. Amnesty International persuaded the hospital to reduce the bill to about Sh860,000 but it’s still going up because of bed charges. This is how it unfolded:After the accident, he was rushed to Guru Nanak Hospital in Pangani but referred to Radiant Hospital in the same area for knee surgery. The hospital demanded Omondi pay Sh500,000 upfront before he can be released, he said. Amnesty International Kenya will be left with no resort but to take further action to secure his release and a reasonable settlement of his case," it said.
