Sultanah Aminah Hospital (HSA) has initiated an internal probe into claims of sexual harassment involving a medical specialist in the Department of Anaesthesiology, according to the Johor Health Department. The investigation was launched after a report was received on August 28, following an allegation by a portal that certain parties had approached the complainant to drop the misconduct report related to sexual harassment allegations.

The hospital's management has formed a special investigation committee to handle the matter, ensuring that the process adheres to established guidelines and procedures. HSA is resolute in its stance that it will not allow any attempts to conceal, suppress, pressure, or prevent any staff member from reporting allegations of sexual harassment.

The Johor Health Department emphasized that the hospital is dedicated to ensuring justice for all parties involved while maintaining transparency and integrity throughout the investigation.
