Indian Medical Team Performs Surgery on Mauritius Woman Injured in Police Shooting
A 27-year-old woman, Elodie Thomas, was critically injured by a bullet allegedly fired by a police officer in Mauritius on October 9, sparking unrest. Following an urgent request from Mauritius's Health Minister, a 13-member medical team from India's KIMS Hospitals traveled to Mauritius on October 12 to perform complex surgery alongside local doctors. The team decided against transferring the patient to India due to risks. Thomas has since shown significant improvement, with some specialists remaining for post-operative care.
