The authorities responsible for the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) have written to Amnesty International members, saying that they have noted the organization's concerns about Rang Lai Mro's health, and passed them on to the Inspector General of Prisons. However, despite the authorities’ assurances that the Inspector General of Prisons has been asked to take "necessary action in this regard", Amnesty International has not been informed that Rang Lai Mro is receiving the medical attention he needs.
