Roonesha Jooste, 25, gave birth to a baby boy named Lee-Hogan Jooste on 25 June at Delft Day Hospital despite her due date being 11 July.

She claims that the medical staff did not do a thorough check on the baby when he was born and he quickly developed jaundice after they were discharged six hours after birth.

Four days later, she took him back to the Delft Day Hospital after his condition worsened.

She explained: “I noticed that he had geelsug because his eyes were yellow and he started making unusual sounds. I took him back to Delft Day Hospital and when we arrived toe was my kind heel pap.
