Toddler died after hospital staff neglect, inquest told

THE father of a toddler who died after a four-hour wait in hospital hit out at medics yesterday, saying “nobody took any notice” of his son’s failing health.

Ahil Islam, aged one, was taken to hospital in Watford, Herts, by ambulance after developing a fever following a minor burn when a cup of tea was spilled over him.

His parents say they expected him to be rushed to a ward, but instead he was kept waiting in A&E until he died four hours later.
