Civil servants suspended for corona patient selfie

Government has suspended six civil servants after they posed for a selfie with a coronavirus patient in a quarantine centre, an official said Tuesday. The selfie - widely shared on social media - pictured a group of men around the apparent patient, several of them smiling broadly and none wearing face masks.
The picture was taken at a quarantine facility near Sukkur in virus-hit Sindh, where 399 of the country's 892 COVID-19 cases have been recorded so far.
