New Delhi/Ghaziabad: Adding hurt to injury, the Tablighi Jamaat evacuees have made lives difficult for the healthcare staff working at various hospitals across the Delhi-NCR region. After reports of unruly behaviour and incidents where they spat at the hospital staff, those at the Nizamuddin Markaz Covid-19 cluster were found walking partially-nude making lewd gestures at nurses at a hospital in Ghaziabad.

Ghaziabad CMO in a written complaint to Uttar Pradesh police said that Jamaatis who were put under medical observation at an isolation ward of a city-based hospital in Uttar Pradesh indulged in deplorable behaviour.

They were found roaming around partially nude (without trousers), making vulgar signs, listening to inappropriate music and demanding cigarettes which made work for nurses at the institution extremely difficult in this hour of crisis.

The CMO in his complaint said that nurses complained of the patients who were evacuated from Tablighi Jamaat's Nizamuddin complex on Wednesday.

"The Jamaati patients kept under observation on suspicion of novel coronavirus disease at the hospital's isolation ward were found roaming semi-naked without pants, listening to vulgar songs," the Ghaziabad's MMG District Hospital CMO said.

He further said that these patients asked for cigarettes from the housekeeping staff causing problems in the normal functioning of the hospital.
