A nine-year-old child named Huzayfa Afnan, who was seriously injured by gunfire coming from the Myanmar side in Teknaf, Cox’s Bazar, is being transferred to Dhaka for advanced treatment after his condition deteriorated. Brigadier General Mohammad Taslim Uddin, director of Chittagong Medical College Hospital, said preparations were underway to send the child to Dhaka by 4 p.m. on Tuesday.
Doctors reported that although surgery was performed on the child’s head, the bullet could not be removed as it was lodged deep in a highly risky area. Professor Dr. Harunur Rashid, head of the ICU department, stated that a neurosurgery team conducted the operation and cleaned the wound. The child was initially admitted to Chittagong Medical College Hospital after being shot near the Techa Bridge area of Hwaikyang in Teknaf last Sunday morning.
Huzayfa is the eldest of three siblings and the son of local fish trader Jasim Uddin. He is a third-grade student at Haji Mohammad Hossain Government Primary School.
