The journalist's family said although she has been carefully monitored by medical professionals at the military hospital her health condition has been deteriorating. Malak underwentto a series of tests and “after fluoroscopy doctors found a foreign body inside her body” one of her relatives was quoted by Moroccan media as saying. The medical team discovered a dressing compress that was forgotten at the time of her first two surgeries at the Rabat clinic. “This is very serious. What happened is a crime” Jaouad Benaissi one of Malak's relatives said angrily denouncing the medical malpractice according to Le360. Benaissi demands on behalf of the Support Committee that judicial sanctions be taken against the medical team that performed her first two surgeries and stitched her up without removing the compress. 'This only further complicates the situation” Bennaissi stressed adding that Malika's situation 'is very bad' as her condition and morale deteriorate according to the same source.
