Two-headed baby under police guard
06:26 AEST Thu Aug 28 2008

(Image removed from quote.)

A baby boy born with two heads in southwestern Bangladesh has been placed under police protection because of the curiosity his birth has caused among locals, a doctor has said.

The boy, named Kiron, was born by Cesarean section on Monday weighing 5.5kg in Keshobpur, 135km from Dhaka, gynaecologist Mohamad Abdul Bari told AFP.

"He has one stomach and he is eating normally with his two mouths. He has one genital organ and a full set of limbs," he said.

"He was born from one embryo but there was a developmental anomaly."

The clinic had been unable to determine whether the baby had one or two sets of vital organs, Bari said.

The baby's life was not in immediate danger but he and his mother, 22, had been moved to a larger hospital in nearby Jessore city because large crowds had gathered at the clinic, he said.

"Around 150,000 people gathered yesterday from different areas. It became tough for us to care for the baby.

"We called police to tackle the situation and they are guarding the hospital in Jessore as well," he said.

The daily newspaper Samakal said many well-wishers had left money for the baby's family.

I wonder whether they will have different personalities, and if they are both able to control their body parts or just one.

Tragedy..... surely donations could have been made..... Although what a sad life he was destined to live, always being looked at differently.

:(

(is this where privatised health care fails, in terms of the marginalised parts of the population?)
