The genital of the five-year-old girl of Dinajpur, who was raped and now fighting for life at Dhaka Medical College Hospital, was found with deep cut with sharp thing, physicians said on Wednesday.
‘The genital was cut with something sharp. The injury reached to the bone. It also got infected,’ DMCH deputy director Khwaza Abdul Gafur told New Age.
‘She needs to undergo surgery to restore the genital to its shape’, he said.
Gafur said her condition was not favourable for the surgery now.
He said a medical board, headed by gynaecology department head Ferdousi Islam, was formed Wednesday to ensure proper treatment for the child.
The team would sit today morning to decide the next course of treatment, he informed.
The girl was now fighting for her life at the One-stop

The OCC coordinator, Bilkis Begum, said there were evidence of rape. Her body bore several bite and scratch marks. She was burnt in parts of her body with cigarettes.
In the afternoon of October 18, the girl was playing near her home in Jamirhat village in Dinajpur’s Parbatipur upazila. Towards evening, her mother noticed that she was missing.
The family searched but could not find her. In the morning, villagers found her lying bloodied and unconscious in a field near her house.
She was first rushed to a local hospital and later moved to Rangpur Medical College Hospital. As her condition worsened, she was then taken to the DMCH on Tuesday.
