Patients pass out before voting

BANDUNG: Three patients at Hasan Sadikin Hospital in Bandung were
unable to join the voting in the April 5 election as they fell
unconscious shortly before the election on Monday.

The patients were reported as Titi, Uting and Ojoh.

Sulaeman, a poll committee member, said that the story began
when he and his colleagues visited the hospital and brought the
ballot papers from one hospital room to another for eligible
patients to vote.

But, the committee members skipped the three patients after
they discovered that the three were unconscious when they entered
their rooms.

A nurse at the hospital said that the loss of consciousness
was due to their condition. -- Antara
