According to the local TV channel (RTV Utrecht), Sahro Barre Mohamed, 32 who had three-month pregnancy died in center for the asylum seekers in Leersum town of Utrecht province after she lacked urgent medical care.

“The woman has been sick for many days and the click department nurses in the center have been reluctant to assist and let her into the main hospital and the security staff also rejected to call an ambulance and then she has passed away.” One of the Somali asylum seekers told Utrecht TV.

“They treat us like animal. They don’t give us respect so I would suggest to the government to take this case of death into consideration.” Another refugee man said angrily.

There has been wide-raging anger by the local government in Utrecht over the death of the Somali woman as the authorities blamed the officials of the refugee center for neglecting the woman’s life.
