Chittagong Bureau :
A newborn is among three more Rohingyas who joined scores of injured refugees being treated at Chittagong Medical College and Hospital or CMCH on early Friday. Saiful Arman, just 25 days old, is the son of Syed Nur, a resident of Rochidong neighbourhood in Rakhine state where the Myanmar army has been unleashing violence on the Muslim community.
He has been admitted at the hospital with burn wounds, said ASI Alauddin of CMCH police outpost. Two other refugees admitted with him – Salimullah, 45 and Hafez Ahmed, 16 – were injured in accidents, he said. They were transferred to CMCH from a clinic set up by Médecins Sans Frontières in a refugee camp at Teknaf.
At least 106 injured Rohingyas, who mostly suffered gunshots and burns, were brought to the state-run hospital in the three weeks since violence broke out in Rakhine state over terror attacks launched by Muslim insurgents on Myanmar security posts on Aug 25.
