Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, February 18) The Commission on Human Rights is being urged to look into the death of a detainee s barely month-old child, and probe the government s possible non-compliance with international rules on the treatment of imprisoned mothers.
Kapatid, a support group for families and friends of political prisoners, made the appeal to CHR on Thursday following the death of detainee Nona Espinosa s newborn child, Baby Carlen. Kapatid said the child died last Sunday of an infection in the lungs and blood after being hospitalized for a few days because of low hemoglobin count.

The Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has vowed to work closely with the Philippine National Police (PNP) to provide “safe place” for the continuous bonding between detained peasant organizer Amanda Echanis and her newborn son.
The DSWD reassured the public that it “will put a premium on the best interest” of Echanis’ one-month old child.
“DSWD will work together with the Philippine National Police to provide Amanda and her son a safe place that would allow them to continue their bond as mother and child not only for humanitarian reasons but also in compliance to the provisions of RA 11148 or The First 1000 Days Law which the Department strongly adheres to,” it said in a statement.
