During the investigation, staff members had used temporary paperwork to move newborns between care areas. One transfer had not been properly documented, and duplicate entries made the situation appear even worse.
Dr. Nabil had tried to conceal his earlier mistakes rather than report them.
He had not created a medical miracle.
He had created a chain of errors that left a mother unable to account for every one of her children.
The investigation also established that Dr. Samar had entered the restricted corridor to bring the missing transfer paperwork to the attention of the neonatal team. She had handled the situation improperly by entering without authorization, but the evidence did not support the accusation that she had stolen a child.
The police continued to investigate the hospital’s procedures, while the medical staff focused on the babies.

The doctors compared identification bands, birth times, transfer records, and genetic samples where necessary. They reviewed the footage that remained available and interviewed every staff member who had entered the maternity and neonatal areas.
