notified by phone (Police of Deta, Department 9 of the Rural Police of Jebel), who
started the actions for identifying the dead person and for investigating the
circumstances of the death.
The medical certificate for the death issued by the Institute of Legal Medicine
of Timisoara on 03.08.2017 set out “Myocardic Fibrosis” as the cause of death.
The team visit found in the Visit Report that there were some faults in the
supervision of the dead patient, which allowed her to leave the pavilion of the

Measures of Jebel, Timis county should urgently arrange the inside yard by
completely deforesting the area with abundant spontaneous vegetation, to improve
supervision and avoid unpredictable events, considering the patients’ psychiatric

Institution, which notified us that it had asked the Public Health Department of the
Timis county to check the found aspects and the recommendations set out with a
