NGOCSTIP – A shocking case of alleged child abduction has emerged from a prominent hospital in Jombang, Indonesia. The case has drawn significant attention after news went viral about a young patient who was reportedly abducted from the hospital. The hospital’s response has sparked questions and raised suspicions regarding its role in the incident.
The hospital representatives, Mrs. Tri and Mrs. Ima, recently issued a clarification regarding the alleged kidnapping incident that occurred on February 20, 2025. According to their statement, the hospital initially believed the suspected kidnapper was a family member of the patient. As a result, they did not intervene. However, the patient’s mother (referred to as R) provided information that contradicts this explanation. She filled out a privacy form, which clearly stated that no one could visit or take the patient without parental consent.
Further complicating the situation, the hospital claimed that they tried to stop the suspect by following them outside the hospital. However, the evidence provided by the family suggests that the hospital issued a discharge letter that was signed by the suspect, not the patient’s parents. This runs counter to the hospital’s initial statement, which claimed that the patient’s transfer to another hospital in Sidoarjo was based on a doctor’s recommendation.

Another troubling element in this case is the hospital’s CCTV system. The hospital claimed their CCTV could not record videos. It only displayed photos due to a lack of facilities. This explanation has been met with criticism. Many believe the hospital’s CCTV should have recorded video, especially during suspicious incidents.
The lack of recorded footage creates a significant gap in evidence. This gap could clarify the circumstances of the alleged abduction. The hospital has defended its actions, claiming everything was done according to Standard Operating Procedures (SOP). However, discrepancies between their statements and the family’s evidence raise concerns. This calls into question the hospital’s transparency and accountability.
Despite the hospital’s defense, the family of the abducted child is not backing down. Early this morning, the parents returned to the Jombang Police Station, presenting additional evidence, including a video showing that the hospital had initially claimed the transfer of the patient was based on a doctor’s instruction. This contradicts the hospital’s more recent statement, which suggests that the transfer was made at the request of the family.
With determination, the family is urging the police to take swift action and bring their child back to their care. “We just want our child back and hope the police act decisively. We don’t want this case to drag on without any resolution,” said the mother of the victim, her eyes filled with tears.

This case has caught the public’s attention, as well as child protection activists. Pressure is growing for a thorough investigation. Several parties urge authorities to explore potential negligence or involvement from hospital staff.
The family’s efforts to seek justice have garnered widespread support. This highlights the importance of protecting children from harm. It also stresses the need to hold institutions like hospitals accountable for their actions.
As of now, the police have not released an official statement regarding the ongoing investigation. The public remains anxious, hoping for swift and concrete steps from law enforcement to ensure justice is served. The family and the wider community await further updates as the investigation into this troubling case continues.
