Blocaj la INML București: Familiile nu își pot ridica morții, Poliția și Jandarmeria au intervenit / Criza medicinei legale ajunge la înmormântări

Families at the National Institute of Legal Medicine in Bucharest are unable to retrieve the bodies of their deceased relatives, leading to police intervention. This situation follows warnings from legal medicine officials about an imminent financial and operational crisis, which could delay autopsies and funerals indefinitely. The crisis is exacerbated by a shortage of staff and funding cuts, with only a few autopsy specialists available to handle the workload. The delays are affecting not only funeral arrangements but also legal investigations, as autopsies and other forensic analyses are crucial for criminal cases. The legal medicine system has called for urgent government intervention to address these issues.
