The electronic newspaper Hespress has learned from informed sources that the Ministry of Health and Social Protection has successfully identified the ambulance driver who appeared in a controversial video demanding payment for transporting a pregnant woman in the rural commune of Had Soualem, which falls under the jurisdiction of the Berrechid province.
According to the same sources, it was revealed that the implicated driver was an employee of the local commune and was under the supervision of the regional delegation. The information received by Hespress indicates that in a swift response, the ministry decided to immediately replace the driver in question and take the necessary actions against him.
The sources further emphasized that the ministry is committed to accelerating the deployment of 'SAMU' units (Emergency Medical Assistance Services) to prevent such practices and to ensure the availability of free and quality health services for citizens.
