London, Dec 14: An inquest heard that Jacintha Saldanha, 46, left three emotional suicide notes following the prank call by Australian DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian.

But it has emerged today that in one of the notes she has criticised colleagues at the King Edward VII hospital over her treatment following the controversial call.

It is believed this note has left her grieving family furious, with husband Ben Barboza understood to want an inquiry into the hospital.

 

He is also believed to be wanting an independent investigation into what happened in the days leading up to her death.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror, a source close to the family said: ’One of the letters, which is the longest, deals with the hospital and is critical in its tone.

’Needless to say, Ben wants a full inquiry into what happened and he wants to make sure the truth comes out.

’Within the letter, Jacintha calls into question some of the treatment she received at the hospital.’

In another note, the mother-of two describes how she struggled to come to terms with the prank call by the two Australian DJs. The third and final letter is practical and deals with her funeral plans.

The body of the mother-of-two was discovered in her room in staff quarters last Friday.

Two of the notes were found nearby and a third was among her possessions.

The mother of two had also sent a number of emails and made telephone calls that police believe might help explain what happened.

During a five-minute hearing at Westminster Coroner’s Court yesterday it was revealed that attempts were made to revive the nurse but they were ‘to no avail’.

Detective Chief Inspector James Harman said: ‘Jacintha Saldanha was found by a colleague and a member of security staff. Sadly she was found hanging.

’There were also injuries to her wrist. The London Ambulance Service was called to the scene. At this time there are no suspicious circumstances.’

Scotland Yard detectives are examining the notes, as well as interviewing Mrs Saldanha’s friends, family and colleagues at London’s King Edward VII hospital.

The Guardian on Friday revealed the content of the three suicide notes left behind by Indian-origin nurse Jacintha Saldanha, who was found dead a day after receiving a prank call by two Australian radio presenters who impersonated Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles seeking to know the details of "their granddaughter" Kate Middleton, who is pregnant and was at the hospital at the time.

According to The Guardian, the first note of Saldanha criticised the two radio jockeys, Mel Greig and Michael Christian. The second note carried details for her funeral while the third note slammed the staff at the hospital where she worked.

The Scotland Yard investigation is ongoing.
