BESIDES wounds from
frequent beatings and other brutal actions, medics at Muhimbili National
Hospital (MNH) have diagnosed a three-year old boy of Rectal Prolapse
problem.
Usually, the problem is caused by frequent
diarrhoea or constipation for not less than two weeks, according to the
Pediatric Surgeon, Dr Mwajabu Mbaga.
However, the Surgeon clarified that when
the cause is diarrhoea or constipation, Rectal Prolapse exposition ends
up within a week after the problem (diarrhoea or constipation) is over.
“Just as you heard from the boy’s mother
talking about the family history, this boy needs more examination to
determine if there were other brutal acts like defilement against him,”
said Dr Mbaga. She said more medical tests will take place after the boy
recovers from the current external injuries.
The ‘Daily News’ has been reporting about
the twins who were found experiencing brutality from their maternal
grandmother at Kitunda Kati in Ilala District in Dar es Salaam to the
extent of the boy almost losing his private parts which began putrefying
at the time of rescue.
His twin sister was also found walking
with difficulties due to frequent beatings. Both children have been
admitted to MNH, facing malnutrition in common, on top of other external
injuries.
The mother was in fear that her son might
not regain his manhood but the doctors assured that he will get back to
normal situation as initial investigations showed that the minor faced
only serious external injuries.
The accused Ms Marry Damian is detained at
Stakishari Police Station pending accomplishment of the investigations
for her case number STK/ RB/7619/2018.
