SUKKUR: Ghotki Deputy Commissioner Tahir Watto on Friday ordered an inquiry into the death of two persons after their relatives alleged that they died due to unavailability of doctors and other staff at the emergency section of Mirpur Mathelo Civil Hospital, where the victims were taken in a critical condition following a road accident earlier in the day.

Gulshan Manganhar and Abdul Hameed Loond, residents of the Yaroo Loond area near Mirpur Mathelo, were crushed under a container that slipped off a long vehicle and fell on the motorcycle they were riding on Jarwar link road.
