A Baby Born with two heads

Police have been called in to control the crowds after a two-headed baby was born in Bangladesh. More than 150,000 people – almost double the size of the crowds at Wembley Stadium – have surrounded a hospital after news spread that a baby boy had been born with two heads. Police were called in to control the masses as the baby was moved from one hospital to another for security reasons. Officials feared that unless the baby was moved from the clinic in Bangladesh, where he was born, to a more secure hospital, the crowd would force their way in to gaze at the amazing sight.

Last night the boy, named Kiron, was under police protection as doctors tried to determine whether he had any future. Kiron was born in a caesarean operation on Monday, weighing 5.5kg, in Keshobpur, 100 miles from the capital, Dhaka.

‘He has one stomach and he is eating normally with his two mouths,’ said gynaecologist Mohamad Abdul Bari.  ‘He has one genital organ and a full set of limbs.’ … Dr Bari said the baby developed from one embryo ‘but there was a developmental anomaly.’ … ‘We fear the crowds are going to grow even bigger as word spreads.

‘People are desperate to have a look at this baby. ‘We had to call the police to control the situation at the clinic and now the police are on 24-hour guard at the hospital.’
